- Denny Mountain is one of the better known mineral collecting localities in Washington state, containing a wide variety of attractive skarn minerals. It is the site of the original Denny Claims which followed the contact mineralization. Originally located by Artur Denny (one of the founders of Seattle) in 1869, it was the first recorded lode in the Snoqualmie Pass area. Most of the early work there was in search of economic quantities of Iron. The grade found was fairly high in places, but the impurities in the magnetite and hematite made it useless. Some chalcopyrite was also found but the quantity was insignificant for mining.

Raoul Gustaf Wallenberg (4 August 1912 – disappeared 17 January 1945) was a Swedish architect, businessman, diplomat, and humanitarian. He saved thousands of Jews in German-occupied Hungary during the Holocaust from German Nazis and Hungarian fascists during the later stages of World War II. While serving as Sweden’s special envoy in Budapest between July and December 1944, Wallenberg issued protective passports and sheltered Jews in buildings he declared as Swedish territory.
