Currently Playing: I Hiked 50 Miles to Find Forgotten Ghost Towns

This week I set off on a 50 mile hike to 4 different mining camps, lost to time. The hike was brutal with over 25,000 feet of elevation gain and 25,000 feet of elevation loss. The reward was a look into history that few have had since the towns shut down. Each place tells a story that is related to Cerro Gordo, and that greater understanding makes my world that much better.
