| | | | I was there in 2006. There were a lot of building spread out over 2+ miles. There were over 400 people who resided there in 1879. And it's 16 miles from and off the main road.

| | | | Superb! I love ghost towns. There were so many in colorado -- and a few scattered throughout WA, but not many in WA are still intact to this degree.

| | | | Chesterfield looks awesome.
As for Western Washington, we have a lot of trees -- ghost towns were all made of wood. And because we have a lot of rain, that wood doesn't hold up. ("That's what she said" joke anyone?)
Still, I found one mildly interesting ghost town several years back: Lester.
It's a hike to get to. Just a few houses and smaller buildings left. Town closed in 1984, and some old lady lived there 'til 89.

| | | | The buildings are so well preserved because it looks like this is a historical society museum of sorts. http://chesterfieldfoundation.org

| | | | the place is huge..the pix on the site are those on the ?main" drag. The road goes a long way with building further out to explore...that's where the school and gas station was. Theer are other houses out that way too...however, a sign on the main road states that there are still some people who live there and many of the houses that are lived in, look abandoned. so they tell people to be careful when exploring the homes...someone actually might still be living in them!
