Visit the heart of the Wild West and explore abandoned mining towns that showcase the rough-and-tumble gold rush civilizations of days gone by. Lincoln County has a storied mining past, and its relics can be explored throughout the area. Towns came and went as a result of the boom-and-bust industry. Find the ruins of former thriving towns and the graves of young mining workers whose lives were cut short by a bullet or “widow-maker” dust.

You can also continue the wild west tradition by coming to a rodeo or visiting a Lincoln County ranch.
