Standing in the vastness of the valley floor, it is easy to understand the despair those pioneers felt when confronting the absolutely inhospitable valley without a clue to its perils or obstacles. Nowadays, there are beautiful accomodations and all the amenities. As you visit these ghost towns consider that every piece of rusting machinery and bit of wood represents a part of our past. Do not remove, burn or disturb anything.
