Beveridge Canyon reconnaissance, Saline Valley, November 2017.
Beveridge 01
Camped at Lee Flat near Panamint Springs to check out the feasibility of a backpacking trip into Beveridge Canyon ghost town site.
Beveridge 02
Next day, after the grueling 3 hour drive into the middle of Saline Valley, I finally located the spur to Beveridge that eluded me last time.
Beveridge 03
A very rough road. The farthest extent I can drive puts me within a quarter mile of walking distance to the lower canyon mouth.
Beveridge 04
Old dump truck to greet me.
Beveridge 07
Mining camp now visible ahead.
Beveridge 08
Here's another sturdy dumper, resting in peace.
Beveridge 09
Creative use of relics, which is better than taking them away.
Beveridge 10
Looks like the porch has been swept for me.
Beveridge 11
Now I realize the cabin is adopted. That's a cool surprise.
Beveridge 12
Pretty tidy, almost cozy.
