A real Ghost Town
 

I did a day trip on Saturday, 200 miles to a little known place called Bodie california, it's the most complete ghost town in the us aparently. There was a gold mine there and they mined over 100 million dollars of gold from that location before the gold mined out, it was a really cool trip and I like to take drives like that. It was at 8000 ft, ran out of breath and my legs hurt from all the hiking

I was thinking if we could get a good connection here, Rochard would have a new office?

I went there as a kid and it was BORING, now I am thinking that I want to take my boys there. It looks the same as I remember.

Damn that's my kind of place, great pics.

Looks like fun

Would be neat to walk around that place with a metal detector and see what could be found laying around.

Wow that's really cool...too bad about the gold tho :(

My uncle's hobby is visiting ghost towns around the States. Every Christmas we get pictures from ones he visited that year.

Some real nice heritage there. Nice pics would love to visit places like that over in the USA

looks like a very cool place to explore

What? That it was mined out?

Has to be privately owned now with security, right? Otherwise some assholes would have trashed the place. VERY COOL! Thanks

awesome!
great pics :thumbsup

those are some amazing shots. looks like a movie set.

Real ghost town, cool

Always some gold left that everyone was too lazy to find.

Cool pics :thumbsup

it's all ran by rangers now, they live there , even during the winter months when the roads are closed, to keep looters out, it's ran pretty well as far as I could see, cost $3 for an adult, $1 for kids to go in, probably a bit over 50 cars in the parking lot and a dozen motorcycles, so it keeps busy

3 bucks? Dang.. that's not bad. Nothing costs 3 bucks anymore. Take the whole family with a cooler full of picnic goods and you can make a cheaper day of that than a beach/baseball game/ amusement park.... hell.. cheaper than anything.

Awesome.

wow... interesting pics!
