Visiting an abandoned Gold Rush Town













We made one interesting stop today to visit the abandoned town of Bodie. Interesting 13 mile curvy road into the town of which the last 3 miles were of gravel with lots of potholes and washboard bumps.

The town is 8,400 ft above sea level and in its heyday (1877-80 ) had ~7000 residents and produced about $34 million in gold.

We took care of Howard the black labrador while his owner took our photo.
