Points of Interest

Gold, Ghost Towns, Camps, Buildings & Etc.

There is only one reason why desert ghost towns exist; the absence of money. If money isn't there, there is no reason for people to stay. In areas where good-tasting water is readily available, contemporary communities have developed. In the Mojave, these population centers evolved from springs along trails and later roads into transportation waystations and hubs, sometimes concealing or obscuring historical consequences.


Not all of the sites and points of interest on this list are ghost towns per se or abandoned. Still, they may be active communities undermined by the loss of industry or commerce.
