 Arvada
Colorado's first documented gold discovery here
occurred on June 22, 1850. A prospector headed for
California, Lewis Ralston, dipped his gold pan into
Clear Creek. His return was a $5 gold nugget (about
1/4 ounce). In 1858, Ralston brought a group of
prospectors back to the site of his first discovery.
Farmers soon arrived in order to sell supplies to
miners. The railroad was built through the area
in 1870. The settlers, needing to establish a town
so that the railroad stop could have a name, filed
a town plat. The town was named Arvada after the
brother-in-law of one of the settlers.
