Rhyolite Ghost Town - Nevada

The town of Rhyolite began in 1905 as a mining camp after gold was discovered in the surrounding hills. The town grew for five years until the gold ran out. By 1919 it was a deserted ghost town. The last person living there died in 1924. Today the Cook Bank, school house, railway station and a few other buildings remain. As well as the bottle house. In 1907 almost 4000 people called it home. It once had 53 saloons, three hospitals, an opera and three newspapers. As well as 3 railway lines. Today around ten buildings remain.

Nice one. That would be a cool place to visit.

Back when gold diggers meant a different thing...

Sandman I thought on the MGTOW channel you also mentioned something about a finance channel. I work for a hospital for a big chain and our union screwed us and might have us get replaced by less senior people. Been really studying day/swing trading. Any advice?

Looks amazing! I have been to similar places in the USA. They are so sad and fascinating. This idea that the town was once flourishing and became deserted rather fast is captivating. Great job, once again!

I saw 10 ghost towns in the Southwest. I still have another 4 ghost towns videos to release. Which one did you go to?

[@redpillgermany2162]

@@koolbuildings7916 uh I would have to look that up. I think it was a silver mining town in nevada... I am not sure anymore.

[@AvyScottandFlower]

A town that dies or a building demolished, is not just a physical object disappearing Maybe the native Americans were onto something..

You must have been here same time as me. I was filming for my channel also and went into the mine. Great job on your video. Rhyolite is a cool town. I'll be watching your videos now 😁

Looks like what was seen in The Island by Michael Bay with Ewan McGregor and Scarlet Johannson

What a nice place 👍👍 too bad it's another victim of the gold rush.

My father was here and photographed it as he used to give slide shows on mining camps and ghosttowns of Nevada

I've been there when I was a kid. There were still 3 people living there and caring for the site. I want to say the caboose was still a little info booth and gift shop. It was so long ago.
