The Telluride Historical Museum will host "Hike into History", Saturday, August 7th" with local historian Rudy Davison guiding a free hike to the Mayflower Mine in Gray's Basin. The Mayflower Mine sits at 11,953 ft in Gray's Basin, directly to the right of Ingram's Peak looking up from Telluride. The mine was founded by prospectors in the 1890s.

It is said to have been the longest aerial tram built in the Telluride area.

From 1975 until 1981 he published the Telluride Times newspaper and afterward became part owner of Telluride Travel Connection.
