In the late 1860's, claims in the Cerbat area were found and mining began. Eventually, a town that was to later hold the county seat, sprang up.

Cerbat had about a hundred residents and was very isolated, yet managed to have two doctors and a lawyer. Mining continued into the present century, but the town has since died. This ghost town is out in the middle of no where, so if you visit, bring supplies.

Way off the beaten track, and long ago forgotten. Good Boondocking with the camper though
