Gold Creek, at the junction of Gold Creek and the Clark Fork River, is claimed to be the location where gold was first discovered in Montana; although the amount found was not enough to make mining it feasible. Gold Creek is near where the last spike of the Northern Pacific Railway was driven on September 8, 1883.
