GOLD HILL, JACKSON COUNTY, OREGON
THE MINING METROPOLIS OE SOUTHERN OREGON
CEMENT WALKS
<2 OLD H ILL has a natural site for a city, built as it is on
, the hanks of Rogue river, at the gate wav to the won­
derful valley of the same name- The setting’ for a city is
here—picturesque and inspiring—and if the law of natural
development works as it should, the setting will some dav,
and that not far distant, be filled bv a city such as southern
Oregon may not boast at present. The town takes its
name from Gold Hill mountain, so called because nearly
half a million dollars was taken from a ledge at a point
near its summit in the early fifties. No town in southern
Oregon has a greater list’of actual, get-at-able natural
resources awaiting development immediately contiguous
to its corporate limits.
The rushing current of Rogue river—teeming with
gam} salmon, trout and steelhead—offers at a compara­
tively slight cost per developed horsepower an abundance
of power for any and all industrial development. And
speaking of hunting—the neighboring hills are the happy
hunting grounds of southern Oregon. No hunter return's
without plenty of venison, and generally he brings in the
legal limit. Cougar, bear, panther and coyotes may be
had by those who care to hunt them, and several trappers
in the vicinity make good money each winter on the finer
furs.
