I have always wanted to go there but the only time we are up there is when we are snowboarding in Mammoth and Bodie is closed during the winter.
Let me know how it is! :p

Brian,
Bodie is a really cool place! We use to go there all the time when we had a place up in Mammoth. It is a great day trip out of Mammoth. During the summer the fishing is pretty good up there and the scenery is beautiful. I would also recommend seeing Devils Postpile and Rainbow falls when you are up there. :)

Worth the visit JBB! It's awesome to walk through the town and imagine some of the stories that are told. One story has a gunfight breakin' out in one of the saloons and all they can hit are the walls, windows, and floors! Not one death or injury occurred with approximately 30 (I think, don't remember the story completely.guess I could watch my vid again.) rounds bein' spent! Another was that the snows were so heavy at times that they couldn't see the walkways or roads, so they would walk from mule ears to mule ears because that was all that was visible above the drifts! Great place! If ya ever get out here and you're near there, definitely a "gotta stop and check it out"! The wife and I want to go back and take the mine tour sometime. Just be sure if any of you go, take plenty of water, a snackor two, your walkin' shoes, and be prepared to take your time (lotta ground to cover and thin air from the altitude). :D

Great place to visit.The state is'nt restoring the town just trying to keep the buildings from getting worse and falling down. Boot hill has some graves from as late as the 70s or early 80s ,i believe, but i haven't been there for about fifteen years.
