Cambria Lime Kiln | Photographed 14 February 2015. The Golden Civic Foundation interpretive panel at the Cambria Lime Kiln reads as follows: The Cambria Lime Kiln stands as one of the few remaining historic facilities of Goldens industrial legacy. It is the only known surviving man-made industrial component of Golden's brick-making operations and is likely the only historic industrial kiln of any kind remaining in the Golden region and possibly in all of Jefferson County. The company and the individuals behind it had a tremendous influence on the development of the Golden area during the 1880s and 1890s when Golden was a booming town.

City of Golden-owned Parcels in the vicinity of Kinney Run | 10 February 2019. Kinney Run is a local euphemistic name for Deadman Gulch and is not recognized by the Board of Geographic Names. Deadman Gulch and Heritage Dells are recognized by the BGN. It is not clear what is meant by “Eagle Ridge.” It probably refers to one of the two small hogbacks near Eagle Ridge Drive; and probably sounds better than Buzzard Ridge.
