Jeep Trails to Colorado Ghost Townsby Robert L. BrownThe Caxton Printers / Caldwell, Idaho / 1968245 pages"Colorado's multiplicity of ghost towns has long been of interest to natives and visitors alike, as well as to amateur and professional historians, students, and weekend Jeep enthusiasts. Located high up in the lofty and forbidding Rockies, miles from the nearest first-class highways, and often accessible only over half-forgotten trails, these abandoned camps standas reminders of the period when gold and silver held the promise of the Centennial State's future. During the golden age of Colorado mining, hardy prospectors literally honeycombed nearly ever moutnain range in the state in their relentless search for precious metals. During this same period, several hundred towns were started, only to wither and die in the years of their infancy."57 settlements selected.Illustrated with photographs.Each ghost town has an entry with description and directions.
