Balmoral, Dacy, Victoria, Cyanide, and Preston were towns near each other, built up in the late 1890s to work the gold around Ragged Top Mountain. The area is now known as Preston.

There are several original buildings still standing, including the Ragged Top School and a deserted three-story house.

This site is near the Terry Peak ski area outside of Lead.
