Producing $20,000,000 in precious metals, Caribou became one of the richest mining camps in the Rocky Mountain West. This is the story of Caribou from the discovery of silver in 1869 by Sam Conger to when it became the ghost town it is today. In its heyday 1,000 people lived in tents and log cabins, working the mines and stores, going to school and church, surviving the harsh winters at 10,000 feet. This is their story as told by the people who lived there. 'The Story of Ghost Town Caribou' was originally published in 1957 as a small booklet. This edition published by the Nederland Area Historical Society has been brought up to date with additional photographs and text.
