It would be good to have a photo of the town itself, not just the famous mill. Ntsimp (talk) 02:52, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Ghost town?

"There are books available on Crystal by one of its few residents."

If this place still has a few residents, can it truly be a ghost town? I guess it's a fine line, but I wonder. Perhaps there should be some clarification as to how many residents the place actually has. Paul 01:48, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Roads

No road providing access to Crystal was ever a Colorado State Highway -- I think someone was just misreading the maps. These are county roads at best. Paul 01:50, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] NOT a hydroelectric plant

Note that this was never a hydroelectric operation. Hydropower was used in order to compress air, which in turn was used for pneumatic power tools. See Crystal Mill. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.71.67.2 (talk) 18:02, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
