Geneva City Colorado Townsite - Ghost town
Colin Smart contributed these photos. I have not been to the site. I was under the impression it was on private property and I could not get to it. Guess it is time for me to rethink this one as it is close to Denver. Supposedly this is at or near 11,600 feet.
THANKS Collin - send the rest of your photos as there was a two story boarding house standing in the 1980s. I would love to see that.

website !!
Geneva City - This is not on private property. When you follow the trail up,
you will go through an area that is private but the road is for the public.
Best to go up on a week day and after the month of June. Depending on snow
fall, may even be July to get to the top. We were up that way a last week and
due to the last wind storm, there are literally hundreds of trees down so the
trail may not be accessible until late summer 2012. It is a popular camping
area and crowded on weekends. It is well worth the trip up. There are other
buildings up than the ones you have posted. You have to search for them and some
are hidden in shrubs now. There is also an old 1946 International truck up there
( I think that is what it is ). There is also a lot of searchable history to
the area. Here is a link to some of it.
