More High Desert Pics

Sierra Kid · Feb 8, 2009

Here are some more pics from the California high desert. On pic is from the inside of an abandoned miners cabin. Another is from a Post Office built in the 1930's to serve the miners. Believe me, its in the middle of nowhere!

Sweeeeet! We just LOVE goin on trips with folks and you are sure covering some great areas!

YAY!! We get to go more guys!!

Sierra Kid · Feb 8, 2009

LOL. You should check out the Mojave. You will love it!

Cynangyl · Feb 8, 2009

I already love it with all the trips we have taken with Hoss on here and your trips too. Actually the terrain and such is very similar to where I live in the high desert of Central Oregon.

I still want to go see the Mojave first hand someday though! :icon_sunny:

Until then you and Hoss can keep takin us on trips! :icon_study:

Central Oregon sounds neat. There must be some good places to prospect!

Cynangyl · Feb 8, 2009

Actually there are some good spots to prospect real close by and of course it is a pretty short drive to some of the best prospecting places around but some here as well. There are also great places to go rockhounding, camping, fishing and just about any outdoor activity you can think of. We have a lot of ghost towns and interesting history around here. I am just now starting to research a lot of it and finding out a lot I did not know even though I was pretty much raised in this area. I was astounded at the amount of ghost towns within a half hour drive of where I live. I am going to have a BLAST this summer now that I have a job where I actually get some time off! lol

Wow! Sounds great. I love to do the research associated with exploring/prospecting. One of my haunts is the BLM office (great maps and on site Geologists) and the local library.

Cynangyl · Feb 8, 2009

Our local library is awesome and we have a pretty incredible museum....the library had a few books that the historical society published from all the old diaries and newspapers at the museum and I have been enjoying them a LOT!

Awesome! Go find that cache!

Cynangyl · Feb 8, 2009

Bah! It is supposed to start snowing again tonight! >:(

I got two more days to work so I will be shoveling that white excrement then coming in and thawing out again! lol More time to research things though! :wink:
