 Favorite hangout The place to be, in the 1950s, was the area above the dam in Rutland. Not only was it a great place to swim, but it was a popular place for boat racing enthusiasts. The land nearby was owned by Garney Hood at the time. The above photo of this favorite hangout was taken during boat races held in Septemter of 1956 and is courtesy of Dorothy Nielsen of Humboldt.
