Description

THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION OF NORTHERN EASTERN SIERRA GHOST TOWNS AND HISTORICAL SITES

With stunning photography and rich historical detail, Shadow takes you to more than 70 ghost towns, mines, wagon trails, railways, and

forgotten graves across the Sierra.

The rain shadow once challenged pioneers, but now forms a protective shield for the remnants they left behind. Stories of pioneers, miners, and settlers who shaped its rugged past are all shadowed by the Sierra. Some tales are poignant, some quirky, others straight out of the Wild West-but all bring the Sierra's history to life.

Features include:

Over 70 sites organized by county
Historical context from newspapers and firsthand accounts
Maps to guide your exploration

Step into the shadow of history-where every abandoned site still has a story to tell.
