Nivloc Is one of the newer ghost towns we have visited.  Gold discoveries in 1907 led to the creation of this one saloon camp named Nivloc.  This small mining camp was active throughout the 1930s & 1940s.  This recent activity explains the presence of electric motors instead of steam engines.  Modern day mining activity continues today in the nearby town of Silverpeak.  For this reason, we have never camped at Nivloc.
