Although this and other properties around Landusky produced several million, in gold, there’s nothing so exciting as the violence, gunplay and legend surrounding the area. Pike Landusky, Kid Curry and his brothers far outdid the wildest western thriller. The second, Ruby Gulch property is located south of Alder Gulch containing a lead 600 feet lone and 75-127 feet wide. In 1904 the Ruby Gulch Mining Company was organized by Whitcomb and Philips. In 1905 the mill was expanded. The Ruby Gulch was worked continuously. The financial yieldings were over $1,000,000. In 1910 the mill burned down, to be immediately replace by a cyanide leaching plant. The mill shut down in the 1920’s due to high cost of production."
