Aurora, Nevada is one of the West's most historically significant mining towns. Unfortunately it is also one of the least intact and very little remains of the town today.
Aurora's boom years were 1861 through 1864. The town peaked early in the history of the mining west, over 150 years ago, and photos and details of life in the town during that period are sparse.
Reports of the cabin's demise were not greatly exaggerated.
