A Snowstorm
By the time Brent got to the ghost town, he was met with an unfortunate event as a snowstorm had struck the area. Because of the snowstorm, he was stranded in the area as he was trapped in there for over three weeks. Brent said, “I’m a Florida boy, so a couple feet of snow to me is something else. The weather outside was a frigid 25 degrees Fahrenheit. When we get up to four or five or six feet and it’s on the banks of the road, that’s a recipe for dwindling supplies.”
Remnants Of The Past
According to Underwood, he says that seeing the remains of what the town used to be gives him a sense of peace and comfort. The town has been through a lot of different problems, and still, its 22 buildings remains intact. Underwood also found several bullet holes in the walls, blood stains on the floor of the saloon, and a cemetery filled with the graves of hundreds of miners.
