In the 1860's Pioche, Nevada was known as the baddest town in the west; badder than Tombstone, badder than Dodge City and all the rest. A most notorious mining camp, where the only law was the gun. Today, Pioche is a living ghost town of about 900 people, although it had 8,000 people in it's mining boom town days.
