View of Burrows Park located in Hinsdale County, Colorado. The ghost town was established in the 1870s and served as a small commercial center for miners of three nearby mining camps. The two hand hewn log cabins pictured here are located on the Burrows Park trailhead and were stabilized in 1989 by the Bureau of Land Management and the Hinsdale County Historical Society.
