Executive summary about California Camping by Matt Peters
Southern California camping
Camping is one of the most interesting things to do in California. The state has a lot of excellent spots where you could put up a campsite. If you’re in for some great and unusual escapades, you can go on a California camping trip at some of the state’s famous ghost towns.
Calico Ghost Town
Calico has countless shops and a museum. Town entertainment includes actors in period costumes entertaining visitors and tourists. The past is kept alive with trains, stagecoach rides, regular gunfights, restored mining equipment and old household articles put on display.
Bodie State Historic Park
You can spice up your California camping trip by taking on the Bodie State Historic Park, a gold-mining ghost town located northeast of Yosemite. A small part of the town is preserved in ghost town atmosphere. The absence of commercial facilities makes the town appear much the same like it did some 50 years back.
