Beginning as a mining camp near the Mayflower and other gold mines in northern Bullfrog Hills, it became a formal town in 1908 and flourished briefly until fire destroyed much of its business district in 1909 and litigation delayed mining. Population peaked at an estimated 2,500 in 1908, and the community survived at least through the closing of the Pioneer post office in 1931. Mining continued near the town site through 1941. Few remnants of Pioneer structures survived through the end of the 20th century. ==Geography== Pioneer is on the north side of the Bullfrog Hills along Pioneer Road, a gravel road off U.S. Route 95. It is about north of Beatty, northeast of the ghost towns of Rhyolite and Bullfrog, and northwest of Las Vegas. Desert springs in or near the Oasis Valley of the Amargosa River are east of Pioneer. Donovan Mountain in the Bullfrog Hills rises to above sea level near Sarcobatus Flat slightly west of the ghost town, and the northeastern corner of Death Valley National Park is about further west. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pioneer, Nevada」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
