COMMENTS:
Adjacent to Keystone ski resort
the town was re-incorporated in the 1980's to create zoning to
keep the growning Keystone resort from entering their town. A
paved road leads to the town but turns to dirt at the Town line.
Several old buildings remain including the old school house where
Town meetings are still held. The ghost town of St. Johns is
nearby and serves tourists brave enough to drive the roads to
find it. Montazuma is off Route 6 between Dillon and Loveland. REMAINS: General store, school house, resident housing. |
| Current population less than 75. Perhaps less than 50. Submitted by Lou Harmin. |
