From Genoa and Gold Hill in the West; Pioche to Osceola on the eastern border; frozen Charleston and Mountain City in the extreme north and Eldorado and Callville in the southern tip and everywhere in between, the miners and the Mormons, gamblers and saloonkeepers, mistresses and ministers- all had their part in creating the now dead or dormant communities..
