Freighting strings belonging to Remi Nadeau are captured here in Soledad Canyon. During the 1870's, Nadeau and his men hauled silver-lead bullion from the Soledad and Cerro Gordo mines to Los Angeles via Beale's Cut. Nadeau, who owned property in Canyon Country that later became the North Oaks home tract, sold the business in 1882 and returned to Los Angeles, where he built a hotel and worked in agriculture.
