Especially for Stephen King fans. He travelled thru Ely years ago and wrote the book "desperation" based on the area and its legends. Read the book for more clues about the 100 chinese miners who were killed and how their ghosts hail from this very cabin. Take the Northern nevada Railroad tour and get more clues. Pay attention to the story about the "honeymoon house". This is where the treasure that you seek is. Oterwise, drive approx 2 miles west of Ely on the "Loneliest Highway" (50). Stop at the old boardede up Lane City schoolhouse. Look across the highway and past the tracks. You will see an old miners cabin built into the hillside. Look under the roofing adjacent to the chimney.
