Remote and therefore well-preserved ghost town.
The road to Delmar is not well marked, but hopefully you will run into locals coming down from Delmar to guide you on your route. Met two groups of people that gave great directions to us. The ride, drive was well worth it. So picturesque, quiet and photo graph worthy. Our 6500 mile trip to Death Valley and Ryolite would have been incomplete without Delamar.

The Dixie Valley is a ghost town about 65 miles from Fallon, Nevada. Go 40 miles east to State Route 121 and drive up around 25 more miles. It was a thriving ranching district at one time until the Navy ran out the local residents and made it into an electronic warfare area for their "Top Gun" pilot program out of Fallon. A great place to go to get away from it all. Plenty of trees for shade, water is available everywhere from artisan springs and wells that are constantly flowing. Boondocking with an RV is a great way to go or just bring your tent and make camp at any of the abandoned home sites. If you have mountain bikes it is a great way to explore all of the old roads and ranches. Russian tanks and other military vehicles litter the area to make it appear as hostile territory for the Navy war training. No live ammunition is used so the public is allowed to roam freely at will with the occasional jet fighter flying over very low and very fast and the resulting sonic booms echo through the valley. Water water everywhere and so are the mosquitoes at night so bring your favorite repellent.

We have visited many old ghost town sites but never a site that was once underwater. St Thomas also has a unique history in that it was left a ghost town when its first inhabitants, the Mormons, left in 1870. Settlers rebuilt the town in the 1880s only to have to remove when waters began to rise after the completion of Hoover Dam in the mid and late 1930s. To get an idea of the amount of water which has subsided from Lake Meade. A hike to the town site is enlightening. As you stand in the valley, along what was once the tree lined Main Street, the scope of the distance once covered by water is immense. Amazing, more so, that the dam is 54 miles from the site and along the Muddy River not the Colorado. Lake Meade has lost 2/3 of the water it once held. Truly scary thought. The round trip hike from the parking lot & through the town site is almost 3 miles. Among the old building foundations and cut off tree stumps informational placards depict the towns history. We enjoyed our visit.
