Treasure City, Nevada
Initially settled in 1868 near the summit of Treasure Hill, amid some of the district’s richest mines, Treasure City was one of three primary settlements founded during the silver rush to Nevada’s White Pine region. Many western mining camps were established in difficult locations, but Treasure City was among the few built atop a mountain, where winter conditions ranked among the harshest endured by any mining camp in the West.
