Listen "13 Ghost Towns Across the Pacific Northwest"
Episode Synopsis
Step back in time and explore the ghost towns of the Pacific Northwest, where remnants of the past reveal stories of grit, ambition, and change. During the late 1800s, settlers poured into Washington, Oregon, and Idaho, chasing gold, timber, and new beginnings. Many towns flourished briefly before being left behind when fortunes faded.From Silver City, Idaho, to Bodie, Washington, these once-bustling communities now stand quiet—old storefronts, saloons, and mining relics offering a rare glimpse into life on the rugged frontier. Some towns are easy to reach, while others invite adventure, tucked deep in mountain valleys or along forgotten dirt roads.These ghost towns are living history, each one a reflection of the perseverance that built the Northwest. Exploring them connects you to a time of discovery and determination while offering the thrill of adventure on the open road. Take your RV, follow the trails of the past, and uncover the gold rush stories that shaped the Pacific Northwest.Send us a textPlease follow the show so you never miss an episode.
