You’ll find Hatton’s ghost town remains near Corn Creek, Utah, where it began as Petersburg in 1859. The settlement thrived as a critical stage stop along the Mormon Road, serving travelers between Salt Lake City and Southern California. While Hatton prospered through agriculture and transportation in the 1870s-1890s, a combination of floods, isolation during the Black Hawk War, and the Hurricane Canal’s completion in 1904 led to its eventual abandonment. Its silent ruins hold fascinating stories of pioneer life.
