The west side of the town square. Remove the cars and put in horses and you'd think you were in an old west town.

The depot at Ridgeway. Ridgeway was the main office of the RGS and had an interchange here with the D&RGW RR. The building appears to have been moved as the tower faced to the east and now faces north.

This may be one of the newer mills built when the RGS ran through here. The Smuggler-Union mine built a newer Ball Mill, but I wasn't certain if this was it.
