  • Known for its signature and well-preserved Courthouse, Belmont is one of many sprawling ghost towns in Nevada. Founded in 1865, this town followed the boom and bust of many mining towns; booming when silver ore was plentiful; and busting when the ore ran out. Today, Belmont is a remote area in the Toquima Mountains which features the ruins of the past, interspersed with new construction in the present. The courthouse, completed in 1876 is the most imposing structure in the area, and bears its own history, including a modern-day visit by Charles Manson and his followers.

    You put out fantastic videos and it’s a shame that the algorithm hasn’t favored you yet. These vids kept me sane while working/living in Kuwait. Thank you and don’t stop!

      Thanks for the kind comments and support! I am currently doing this because I actually enjoy it; if fame and fortune comes, I won't turn it down, but its not the ultimate motivating factor atm. Someday though, algorithm, right? :)

    That Courthouse would've been an ominous sight for a horse wrestler walking up for trial.
    Thanks for sharing!

      Indeed, plenty of records of thieves and other characters meeting unpleasant ends in this area. :O
