OT - a few from Mono Lake and the Eastern Sierra - Dialup Unfriendly
I just got home this afternoon from a whirlwind tour. I really haven't had a chance to do any real processing on them yet but here's a quick pass at a few of them.

There were a few folks still there until the 70s but the town basically died in the 30s.
