"Just beyond Latuda at the upper end of Spring Canyon, are the remains of three small mining camps – Rains, Mutual, and Little Standard. These were so closely grouped together that the towns blended one into the other. Rains got its start in 1915 when prominent mining engineer Leon Felix Rains garnered the interest of P.J. Quealy, a coal operator from Wyoming, in investing in the coal lands west of Standardville."
