A guy on a ghost town webpage posted in a guest book the following.. YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED IN YOUR TRAVELS TO TEMPIUTE 2 HOUSES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE VALLEY , ON THE NORTH SIDE OF RACHEL....... Is this Old Tempiute he is talking about? The one on the Rachel homepage? Any help is appreciated.
MY BROTHERS AND I BOUGHT THEM A YEAR AGO. THE ORIGINAL OWNERS WERE WESLEY AND EVA KOYEN. THAY FILED THE ORIGINAL TUNGSTEN CLAIMS IN THE MID 30'S....THERE IS A BOOK WRITTEN BY EVA CALLED , "THE TREASURES OF TEMPIUTE"... FASCINATING READING. YOU WOULD THINK BY READING IT , THEY WERE CROSSING THE OLD WEST BY COVERED WAGON, BUT IT WAS JUST 60 PLUS YEARS AGO THEY PIONEERED THAT AREA. WE ARE COLLECTING HISTORICAL DATA ABOUT THE HOUSES, THE MINE AND THE VALLEY IN GENERAL. IT IS A GREAT WEEKEND DESTINATION.....IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED IN VISITING US WHEN WE GO TO RACHEL, E-MAIL ME AT ******@ARILION.COM OR **********@AOL.COM
BRING AN ATV, CAUSE YOU CAN GO 100 MILES AND NEVER SEE PAVEMENT.
