I love these, thank you. A couple times the interviewee mentioned "The Park", but they didn't mean South Park, they meant the greater Leadville area. Do you know if that park had a name?

It could have been Taylor Park in Gunnison county but I have heard the reference “the park” before and I’m not entirely sure which one they’re referring to. In the Victorian era West I’ve often seen references to “the mountain” and “the valley” without clarity on the meaning. Lost to time I think. And I am happy you enjoy the videos, thank you for stopping by!
