If you like blurry people-motion pictures, put your camera on a tripod and wait. There's always someone moving around.
Bode State Historic Park
The California gold-mining ghost town of Bodie is well preserved and offers many opportunities for the photographer.
​
The park is north of Lee Vining and south of Bridgeport. It's about 13 miles east of Highway 395, 3 miles are an unsurfaced road, sometimes quite bumpy.
​
There's lots of information about the town on the Bodie State Historic Park website, including a detailed map.
​
Admission (2025) is $8.00 per person, and they accept cash or checks.
From April 15th to November 3rd, Bodie is open from 9 am to 6 pm.
​
Use Highway 270 into Bodie! The turn off for Hwy 270 is located off of Hwy 395, south of Bridgeport and north of Mono Lake.
You never know what you'll see. In or near Bode you might see some interesting cloud formations.
