Miner's Delight

As if ghost town weren't creepy enough, we stumbled upon Miner's Delight, outside of South Pass City, on an early afternoon of thick fog, brisk winds, and dropping temperatures. The fog curled in and around the skeletons of homes and the old stands of rotting mining equipment creaked and moaned an eerie harmony... As I peered into the murky ponds surrounding the town, I half expected dead elves to be mournfully staring back at me...

This creepy town was actually inhabited until the 1960s!
