Ryan Camp Train To Widow Mine 1939 - 2019

[DeathValleyDazed]

I mixed some vintage 1939 home movie footage with my 2019 exploration of the narrow gauge track south from Ryan Camp to The Widow Mine for historical context showing how eighty years of exposure has taken its toll. I recommend taking a day to park your car along Dante's View Road beyond the boundary of The Ryan Camp, scramble east up the slope to the train track bed and follow it south to the Widow Mine and back to the Ryan Camp boundary marker. The history and the views are memorable and the train bridge trellis tops off the tour.
