Over the years, Beth Sagstetter heard time and time again from people who had visited ghost town sites and were disappointed because there was “nothing left.” So she wrote The Mining Camps Speak to share new ways to explore these mysterious sites, even if all that’s left is rubble.
The techniques are valid in any western state, even Alaska. It begins where other ghost town guidebooks end. In her illuminating talk, Beth guides attendees through sites in Sherlock Holmes fashion demonstrating how to identify forgotten pieces of the past. You will see for yourself the lives that passed this way and you will hear The Mining Camps Speak.
This event is free and open to the public.
