We revisited the Caribou Mining District a few weeks ago. There is an active silver mine still onsite. But all that remains of the original town is a broken down cabin and two stone building ruins, that must have been Mine Offices.
As I have mentioned. The theme for the rest of the summer is Ghost Towns.......More Ghosts on the way.
Back in 1988/89 I had a company assignment from the UK to Sunnyvale CA (computers); we went to Bodie at least three times and did a few of the other mining towns between Tahoe and Vegas. I remember Calico, but that was very commercial - it takes a lot to beat Bodie.
