Ghost Town George Town,Utah



Over 150 years, the Yost Valley community has been known as George Town, George Creek, Junction, and Town of Yost. Beautiful Yost Valley, hidden land of paradise, is located on the north slopes of the majestic Raft River Mountains. Yost Valley is situated south of the popular landmarks, City-of-Rocks — within the once “Pacific Federal” transportation corridor. At least eight heavily traveled trails and wagon roads crisscrossed the region that became known as Western Frontier Crossroad Junctions. Roads included “Old California, Old Oregon and Great Salt Lake Cutoff” between 1848 through 1874.
