In the spring of 1870, five Union Army veterans followed the South Fork of the Rio Grande River up to a stream that ran along the base of 13,000foot South Mountain located in the Alps of America. There, at a place they named Wightman Fork, the discovery of some promising gold nuggets led to more prospecting and the eventual formation of the Summit (Summitville) Mining District in the then Colorado Territory of the United States. From a brilliant beginning to an ignoble ending, Summitville thrived, survived, and ultimately died, still boasting a history of some of the richest ore deposits in Colorado s mineralrich San Juan Mountains. In A Gold Camp Called Summitville, the area s geology, its mining bonanzas, and personal recollections and revelations are woven together to paint an accurate picture of the company town of Summitville, its topproducing gold mines, and those who worked and lived at its rugged and demanding elevations above 11,000 feet.
