Looking for Utah sites

(1/1)

FirstBeFit:
Do you know of any ghost towns or good places to THunt that aren't so crowded, yet give a chance for a great find? Thanks, I'm new to the St. George area.

BitburgAggie_7377:
Keep your eyes open for a book entitled Those Forgotten Places Vol 2: Utah by D. Gordon McNab.  Published by Western Research Co in Reno, Nevada in 1987.     If you can find a copy of that, you've found yourself a gold mine of long lost places (many of which very few people have ever heard of).  Each place has a hand drawn map to it.  The author visited most of the places.   The book looks like it is made of mimeographed sheets bound with a plastic coil/comb binding.  It should be an 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick.  If you can find a copy for sale, you can expect to pay in excess of $75.00 (but it is worth it).

If you live near enough to one of these places to use their library, you should be able to find a copy there (although it will probably be in the non-circulating reference):

Provo:     Harold B. Lee Library  @ Brigham Young University
St. George:   Dixie State College Library
Salt Lake City:   J. Willard Marriott Library @ the University of Utah
                       Salt Lake City Public Library (probably at the main location).


    There are two other volumes......Volume 1 (which I own) covers Arizona.   Volume 2 covers Northern Nevada.     All 3 are extremely difficult to find but well worth the search.
