After spending the better part of an afternoon at Cathedral Gorge, we did a quick 1/4 mile detour up the road to visit the remains of Bullionville. I guess you could call Bullionville a "ghost town" since all that's left is the cemetary.
The cemetary is on a hill overlooking the highway. As in many old towns throughout the west, the cemetary is on a hill because the flat ground was a lot more valuable and was used as building locations for the actual town.
We wandered throughout, pausing at both the fenced off graves and the ones were only indicated by a ring of stones.
Inhabitants of Bullionville- Rest in Peace!
