Pahreah was destroyed by fire set by arsonists in late 2006. People are talking about re-building, but nothing is official as of late.

Pahreahh was used as a movie set. Pahrea was settled in 1870 on the narrow benches above the Pahreah River (later spelled Pahreahh ) Nuts, vineyards, and vegetables flourished. The settlers also ran cattle in the canyons. Pahreah was a popular stopping place for river travelers. The 47 families built sturdy sandstone houses but many of these were washed away during frequent floods. By the 1890's only 8 families still remained in Pahreah. Muddy mess getting there.
