Wells Fargo #1 Treasure City, NV This ruin of tumbled stone marks what was initially the Treasure City Wells Fargo & Company bank and express office and, later, a general store. The Treasure City town site was established in 1869, during the White Pine silver rush of the 1860's. The site is located on a wind-blasted knob of rock at high elevation - over 9,000 feet. After only one winter, it became obvious that this site was NOT suitable for a large community! Copyright © 2004 Jerry Day If you arrived here by search engine, click here to see the rest of site. |
