Although there is much evidence of placer rock moved by human intervention, very little man-made evidence exists. The ghost town is about 1 mile off a very nice 82″ trail. This trail has many water crossings.
In early placer mining days Canyon City was a bumming camp. (Black Hills Ghost Towns: Parker)
No evidence of this railroad and mining town remains.
