Trivia Time #2: Gold Rush Edition

There is a ghost town near the current town of Bridgeport (California). During the Gold Rush era of the late 1800s, it was one of the largest towns in California, although it was short-lived. Nowadays it is a State Historical Park, and possibly the best preserved ghost town in California, where visitors can walk around and look inside the old buildings through the windows.

What is the name of this ghost town? I'll send the winner a postcard :)

  3. BODIE BODIE BODIE!!! We went there on Friday, after we ran into you at the Bridgeport Inn during breakfast. Yeah, remember us?! Rich, Allie, & Atticus? Great to find you. By the way, it wasn't your blog we saw... but your card is almost identical to the one we picked up in Idyllwild. I'll see if I can find that card and tell you who the other hiker is. Here is our own blog on our crazy effort to day hike the PCT with a kid: http://hikingpct.blogspot.com/

    We are a long way behind you!

    Good luck and best wishes, RA&A
