Why this spot
1881-1960s railroad water stop and ranch supply town
Started as a Denver and Rio Grande Western bridge and water stop, settled in 1881 and grew to 328 people in 1910 with stockyards, a hotel, saloons and schools. The railroad moved its facilities to Helper in the late 1920s, droughts followed, and by 1940 only 30 people remained; a roadside geyser stop lingered.View source →
