We are back to Silverton this week for some old West Wildness!
Beautiful Silverton!
The Hillside cemetery has the most amazing views!
The two photos above are of the outlaws in the Gang that we talked about in this week's episode. Pretty grisly photo of Kid Black hanging. And below is a photo of the popular Marshall Clayt Ogsbury, that was killed by Burt Wilkinson. I took these in the San Juan County Historical Society museum and Mining Heritage center.
This is the headstone of Harry White from the story in the episode of the two rival teamsters. What a sad story!
Meet my Co-host!
