Building Detail, Bodie

Detail of an old building in the ghost town of Bodie, California. Photographed during late spring snow flurries.

(Yes, there really is snow falling in this photo. You might be able to see it a bit if you click on the thumbnail to see the somewhat larger size. I was caught – somewhat pleasantly – by surprise when I encountered this rather cold weather at the end of May in 2006.)

Black and white photograph of late spring snow flurries in the ghost town of Bodie, California. Bodie is the famous and relatively well-preserved ghost town in the silver mining area of the high desert east of Yosemite National Park. (Posting the series of Rhyolite photographs made me realize that I have some older photographs of Bodie that haven’t been posted here yet.)

Black and white photograph of the Amargosa Range as seen through the windows of the abandoned school in the ghost town of Rhyolite Nevada. While the ghost town of Rhyolite is in Nevada, the eastern border of Death Valley National Park, including the Amargosa Range, is nearby and visible from here.

Wide angle photograph of the ruins of the Rhyolite School exterior at dawn. While the strong walls of this building are still standing, the roof and interior fittings are all gone.
