W.F. McLeod moved into the Boulder Valley with 200 horses and 125 head of cattle in 1882. Although prospecting had started in Independence in 1869, McLeod was considered the first permanent settler and so the town was named for him. Once a stop for freight going up the mountain, there is a school, post office and camping in McLeod now.Nestled in the beautiful Boulder Valley, McLeod offers opportunities for fishing in pristine mountain streams, rustic resort getaways, camping, hiking, hunting, horseback riding and much more. Near some spectacular natural and man-made wonder, McLeod is also a great home base for sightseers and photographers.
