| Coloma | This ghost town is located 2 miles above Garnet. Technically it is in Missoula County, but Coloma is closely tied to Garnet (in Granite County), even sharing it's cemetery. Coloma was also a mining town. In the 1960s the hotel was still standing, with old newspapers used for wallpaper. The blacksmith shop was abandoned, but still contained all it's tools, anvil, spare horseshoes and even bottles of acid for etching. I understand that the town has since been burned by some campers. |
