What struck me about this old mining town was how much the residents (no longer just ghosts) cared about it. The town was all privately owned, but there were artifacts set out all over town for visitors and residents to enjoy. A cottonwood leaf had fallen onto the fender of this old truck, and it struck me as a juxtaposition of decay involving both the natural and manufactured. Nothing gets out of here without wear and tear.
