Now on private land, this gold rush town only existed between mid 1890's to 1918. By 1900, it had a schoolhouse, mill, several saloons, two brothels, a newspaper called "The Whitehorn News", a post office, and a stage stop and all the other business that make a mountain life comfy. Fire went through and decimated the town in 1902 but was quickly rebuilt. It's "almost lost" cemetery still contain the remains of 30+ people in barely visible graves that we located after being "lost" for more than 80 years.
