Road Trip: Ghost Town Tour, Visit California

As gold-mining fever gripped California in 1849, fortune seekers journeyed to the deserts and mountains with picks, shovels, and high hopes. Miners built entire towns in the state’s most remote outposts. Some struck it rich. Most didn’t. When the ore ran out, so did the people, leaving behind sagging storefronts and mining detritus. Take a tour through California’s most fascinating abandoned towns on this far-flung road trip through the Old West.
