Like the lady engineer on the locomotive says: "This kind of history can't be replaced...". A part of America that deserves recognition and loving attention!
All the more important in this age of CGI and AI to preserve and remember a part of America that we'll not see again. This is part of the story of our nation!
My great-great grandfather Was Micheal Sweeney, also known as James Sweeney. He was one of six men that discovered gold there. I believe once a year they hold a Sweeney days. Kinda neat!

I visited Sam's Town twice in California before it was closed. 😭 I wonder what happened to all those Zigfield Follies photos and arcade and fortune teller machines. 😂
*"Ya got to show the Shoes!"* Montana really has maintained a sense of its originality. I can't imagine a winter there, but I'm certain the land and people are both majestic. Best Regards, Beth NW Tennessee, USA (a Chicago born girl) ☘️
Great documentary. My 3rd Great Grandfather, Absalom Austin Townsend, was captain of the largest wagon train to ever travel down the Bozeman Trail to Virginia City in July/August 1864. He traveled from Wisconsin and most in that 400+ person wagon train were from Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa. The three known trip diaries of this wagon train are fascinating to read.
My Dad took us to Virginia City in the 1960's as kids. I remember looking through the windows of all the stores in amazement. I was told it was a Ghost Town and all the people moved out. In my innocent child's mind, I thought all these antiques and artifacts displayed in all the buildings and stores were the same goods, as they were displayed during the boom-town days, but were just left. I remember seeing piles of pants piled up like you would in JC Penny, and rows of shirts, boxes of shoes. Thinking my they just left all their goods and 100 years later there still there!
Whats crazy gold doesn't even occur naturally on earth. It's created in collision of neutron stars or supernova and hit earth at a early point in earth's history. So it is definitely a finite resource.
God that's really amazing and hats off to you guys for making this wonderful clip over on d Street where my father lived where you showed those bats and the breweries had a a wine press in the basement the biggest one I ever saw at my entire life then you open a trap door in the basement floor and you would have humongous barrels probably hold about 300 gallons if so of wine at several of them there then up on B Street my grandfather and grandmother had one of the first houses that were built on the Mexican mining Mill around 1850 my grandfather was a very successful artist part of the house was an art gallery where he featured his paintings and not to mention he was one of the lead persons in starting the cheap posse erased a lot of money through his artwork and donated a lot of painting some of them are still in the bucket of blood saloon hanging on the wall to this day can't wait to get back up there thanks again
I visited Virginia City and Nevada City back in 2019 after going to the Sturgis motorcycle rally. I camping just outside of West Yellowstone. Such beautiful country and amazing history!
My great-grandparents met and married in Virginia City. Grandpa was a lawyer and grandma a school teacher when they met. George and Lorena Allen. My grandmother was born in Twin Bridges, over the bench", in Twin Bridges. Grandma was born in 1903, and she had a brother. I"m glad to have visited there two times and found my great-grandparent's graves at the edge of the cemetery.
I imagine this was on the Bozeman Trail. There's a great doc on that too! Just got done visiting southern Sierra mining towns and loved it. Columbia State Park in Sonora is wonderful too. Living history block of town.
I’m also a 5th generation Montanan. I grew up around Gilmans. Always will be thankful to them & all the beautiful summers & their amazing Ruby Stables barn! Rubytown is where my heart still is in...♥️♦️Rubytown♦️♥️Alder & V.C. Now that gpa passed (Train depot, round the corner from old Oxbow ....Alder) will probably realize who I am. Mad County & the Ruby Valley is the best. Gosh I was blessed to be from these places! Neat little documentary!
