 Lonely road. |

 Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens |
|
| The (former) town of Garnet. |
 |
| On the left is Kelly's Bar and the two buildings on the right are F.A. Davey's Store. |
 |
| Inside the store. There was a sign that
indicated the prices in 1906. 1 dozen eggs: $0.30 1 lb. butter: $0.30 1 can salmon: $0.20 1 can milk: $0.10 1 lamp chimney: $0.15 1 can coffee: $0.25 1 can oysters: $0.15 shaving soap: $0.10 |
 |
| Up the hill behind the main street were residences and other businesses. |
 |
| Every Old West town needed a blacksmith. This was Billy Liberty's shop. |
 |
| This log cabin doesn't look like a jail, but it really was back in 1897. |
 |
| Thank God for indoor plumbing. |
 |
| Mr. and Mrs. Sam Adams lived in one of the town's more comfortable family homes. |
 |
| Frank Davey, the guy who owned the mercantile we saw earlier, used to offer this miner's cabin to newlyweds rent-free until they could build their own home. |
 |
| The J.R. Wells Hotel. |
 |
| The hotel kitchen. It was a decent-sized hotel, so it must have been busy. |
 |
| On the second floor were many rooms. |
 |
| They probably looked a little nicer than this back then. Up on the third floor is where poor miners stretched their bedrolls on the floor of small rented spaces. |
 |
| There was a Sierra Mine trail, but I didn't have a map that told me what anything was. There were several holes like this that were fenced off. I'm going to say this was a mine opening. Or it was just a hole. |
 |
| Old mining equipment. |
 |
| More old mining equipment. |
