Tintic Mining District silver camp (est. 1869) at the mouth of Dragon Canyon on the west flank of the East Tintic Mountains. Townsite largely gone; smelter/mill foundations, scattered ruins, and the Silver City Cemetery remain just off US-6 south of Eureka — a roadside window into Utah’s silver boom.
