| Beaver City was founded after prospectors from
Leadville camped out in Clear Creek Canyon and their burros wandered down
to the creek. The next day the prospectors found their animals and also
found good float in the creek. Many towns sprang up along the creek including
beaver city which at one time had about 20 buildings but is now reduced
to 2.
