Out of work, most of the miners and business people moved on. Some mining has been done on and off since, but Frisco has died. Today Frisco is one of Utah's best-preserved mining ghosts, with about a dozen stone or wood buildings surviving. A headframe and mine buildings, still intact, overlook the town from the hillside. Five beehive-shaped charcoal kilns stand on the east edge of Frisco.
Dirt roads wind their way in.
Hiking off the roads can be very dangerous near the old mines and time-worn buildings. The House Range about 45 miles west of Delta offers great vistas, scenic drives, wilderness hiking, and world-famous trilobite fossil beds. From a distance, however, Notch Peak's spectacular 2,700-foot face stands out as the most prominent landmark in the region. Precipitous drops on the west side contrast with a gentler slope on the east. Hardy vegetation such as juniper, pinyon pine, mountain mahogany, and sagebrush dominates the dry slopes.
