History
Named by Frank Berry, Antone Marks, William Meehan, John Prior, and James Rosewall, prospectors, in 1880. In their search for gold, they camped at the mouth of Ready Bullion Creek where William Meehan, finding gold, is reported to have shouted "Look at this! Why it is almost ready bullion." (DeArmond, 1957, p. 36).
