The former gold mining town Bodie
is today a very interesting ghost town. |

windows. |
 |
Many roads in the dessert like
backland are straight as a line. |

protection of vandalism, they are not marked on normal
maps, but one does get a special map for free in the
Ranger Station in Bishop. |

Tufas at Mono Lake. The
Tufas are of volcanic origin and only grow under

of old contracts, lead to the far away city of Los
Angeles. And even if there is a drought in this area,
they still can and do water their lawn in L.A. |

They way back via Sonora Pass,
in the snow after a weather change. The pass usually
