Belleville, California was a gold mining boomtown in the San Bernardino Mountains of San Bernardino County, California.
 The settlement grew up rapidly following the discovery of gold by William F. Holcomb in Holcomb Valley early 1860.
 Which helped the town challenge the seat of San Bernardino County (which subsequently after the election in 1861 went to San Bernardino).
 Belleville was named after Belle, the first child born in the new town.
 It was a busy mining town for ten years, it was virtually abandoned before the end of the 19th century.
 It is now a ghost town.
The Montreal Snow Shoe Club (MSSC) was founded in 1840 by twelve well-known young men of Montreal.
 It was the first club of its sort in North America (and probably the world) and led the way for hundreds of other clubs like it to be established across Canada and the United States.
 Though as a club the MSSC was significantly pre-dated by others such as the Royal Montreal Curling Club and the Montreal Hunt, it was snowshoeing that pioneered the organization of sport in Montreal.
 In the 19th century, only lacrosse (and much later, ice hockey) exceeded the total number of urban snowshoe clubs in Canada.
 In the period before 1867, Lindsay remarks, "a history of snowshoeing in Canada is virtually a history of snowshoeing in Montreal, and, in particular, the Montreal Snow Shoe Club".
 The MSSC laid the foundations for many other winter and sporting clubs to be established in Montreal, and notably the world's first Winter Carnival.

 Gold was not found in sufficient quantity to sustain the place, and the site was quickly abandoned.

The Kiandra Snow Shoe Club was founded in the gold-mining district of Kiandra, New South Wales (NSW), Australia by three Norwegians—as early as 1861 by some accounts— and reportedly became the "world's longest continuously running ski club" as it evolved into the present-day Kiandra Pioneer Ski Club in Perisher Valley, NSW.
 Whether the club is the first of its kind has been subject to debate.
 In this case, "snow shoe" is an archaic term for "ski".
