Default I should have asked these questions sooner, help please.

Leaving on Thursday for quite possibly the most adventurous great trip of my life....I have some questions though. I jotted down a handful of ghost towns I'd like to visit, and shoot...does anyone know if these routes are paved, or dirt.
Cisco, off hwy 70.
Sego located on Sego Canyon Rd.
Elgin, in Emery county near Green River.
Osiris, north of Widstoe.
Lund on Lund Highway.
Frisco, in Beaver County, off HWY 21
Grafton, East Bridge Road near Rockville
Silver Reef, Silver Reef Road off Interstate 15.
Eureka, on HWY 6.


The list is not done, I figure its a good start though. If anyone can chime in and help me out, that'd be great. I will be traveling in a muscle car, it does not go on dirt roads...so I can eliminate some of these and add more that are accessible for me later on.

Cisco is not dirt
Sego is, but it is sure easy dirt and of the ones I've visited by far the best old town. Thompson Springs on the way in is good if you don't think you can do Sego
Grafton is dirt
Silver Reef is not dirt
Eureka is not dirt
I don't know the others.

Though over the border in Nevada and still inhabited, you might be interested in Pioche. It has lots of mining history and old west buildings, even a boot hill. You could stop at Modena (old railroad stop town) and Old Iron Town ruins on the way.
