On our way to Las Vegas we called at this "authentic" ghost town, but I have to say that it is about as authentic at Frontier Land at Disney Word.  The place is basically a disused silver mine, but rather than having all it's original buildings and machinery, they have replaced it with plastic looking facades, some of the buildings did not even have backs to them.  What I didn't like was after paying the admission price to get in you had to pay again if you wanted to go down the mine or ride the train.  As you can probably tell I would not really recommend this place as it all felt a little bit to fake.  Below are some of the pictures that I took whilst there.
