Gold Hill

Deep in Nevada's Virginia Range, just outside Virginia City, stands a hotel that has survived for more than 160 years, the Gold Hill Hotel.

Morning broke on Gold Hill with the desert turning gold Men were walking to the mountain like they'd done a thousand times before With a lantern in their hand and another working day They kissed the ones who loved them and slowly walked away

Built during the height of the Comstock mining boom, it once stood at the heart of a community shaped by silver, ambition and extraordinary danger.

Smoke and flames spread through the interconnected tunnels, trapping miners deep below the surface.

Dozens of men would never return home.

And just meters from those mine workings stood the Gold Hill Hotel.

now the mines have long been silent and the tracks have turned to rust all the dreams they carried with them have disappeared into the dust but the hotel still stands above them where the lights still burn at night
