81. Nevada - Death Valley National Park, a Mining Ghost Town, and Ponderosa Saloon

from Uncovering The Corners Of The World · host Karina Kosmala

In the hottest and driest area in the United States, we visit a mining town that used to transport a chemical across rough roads from Furnace Creek to Mojave. Next, we visit Berlin-Ichthyosaur (Ick-theo-saur) State Park to see a ghost town that is also the site of 225-million-year-old marine reptile fossils. Lastly, we grab a drink at the Ponderosa Saloon before we head downstairs to explore its underground gold mine.
