The pavement on highway 270 ends, and that leaves three miles of dirt road to Bodie, probably the best preserved ghost town in the country.

Your first look at Bodie. That's the Standard Mill on the right.

The mill is in the background.

Most of the standing houses looked like this.

Two of the few remaining buildings on main street as seen from one of the abandoned cars.

My favorite photo. They are looking into the schoolhouse. Lessons can be seen on the chalkboard, books on tables, and maps on the walls.

Vehicles from various times have been abandoned and left to sink into the soil.

The boardwalk on Main Street.

One of the many wells around town.

Again, the mill on the left and what I have to assume is an ore cart on the right.

An old truck in front of the Bodie Motel.

The church steeple overlooks the highway out of town.

The gravestone of Evelyn Myers overlooks the town.
