: Seriously, there are abandoned buildings and gold mine ruins here including some structures that look like big beehive ovens. There is a lovely house near me that had once been featured in a magazine when it was new. I live in a 100 year old cabin. There is also a sign stating that Wickes was named after a supervisor at the mine and the family had a reunion here in 1975.
: The owner of the property tells me there is another ghost town up the valley but I haven't seen it yet. When I find it I'll let you all know.
