Calico Ghost Town<\/h1>\n

Engang boede der omkring 1.200 mennesker i byen Calico i Calico Mountains i Mojave-\u00f8rkenen. De levede af at udvinde s\u00f8lv i de n\u00e6rliggende omtrentligt 500 s\u00f8lvminer med tilsammen over 800 km minegange. Da s\u00f8lvpriserne faldt, flyttede folk fra byen og byen stod tilbage som forladt sp\u00f8gelsesby. I dag er bygninger blevet restaureret og kopier af oprindelige bygninger blevet etableret. Calico Ghost Town er en turistattraktion, hvor du kan se byen i funktion med butikker, restauranter, skole med mere. Det er uden tvivl en af de bedste muligheder i USA for at f\u00e5 et indblik i livet for over 100 \u00e5r siden. Du kan desuden campere<\/a> ved Calico Ghost Town. Se mere her<\/a><\/p>\n

Calico dengang<\/h2>\n

Calico blev grundlagt i 1881 som et resultat af, at der blev fundet s\u00f8lv i Calico Mountains og folk valfartede dertil. Som n\u00e6vnt boede der i byens storhedstid ca 1.200 i byen. I Calico Mining District boede ca. 3.000 mennesker. Calico havde et Red Light District med 23 barer og 6 bordeller. Der var spillehaller, restauranter, et hotel (Hank\u2019s Hotel) og en skole. Byen havde sin egen avis, der hed Calico Print. Og s\u00e5 havde Calico endda sin egen Chinatown. I skolen gik ca. 30 b\u00f8rn, s\u00e5 det har ikke v\u00e6ret en b\u00f8rnerig by. Mange flyttede fra Calico allerede i 1890\u2019erne, hvor s\u00f8lvpriserne faldt draktisk. Nogle f\u00e5 hundrede personer blev i Calico og levede frem til 1907 af at udvinde boraks fra miner. Herefter stod byen som en forladt sp\u00f8gelsesby med hovedgade, skole, s\u00f8lvminer og beboelsesejendomme.<\/p>\n

Calico i dag<\/h2>\n

I dag vil du opleve et kopi af hvordan Calico omtrentligt s\u00e5 ud i slutningen af 1800-tallet. Kun ganske f\u00e5 bygninger er de originale. Det unikke ved Calico er, at det er en st\u00f8rre Ghost Town og derfor er der en lang hovedgade og rigtig mange bygninger at g\u00e5 p\u00e5 opdagelse i. De fleste Ghost Towns i USA er mindre byer og har m\u00e5ske blot 10-15 bygninger. I Calico kan du se hvordan folk boede og levede i slutningen af 1800-tallet. Der er indrettet butikker og restauranter i nogle af bygningerne og byen levendeg\u00f8res af skuespillere. Du vil kunne bruge masser af tid p\u00e5 at v\u00e6re der og g\u00e5 p\u00e5 opdagelse. S\u00f8g ogs\u00e5 v\u00e6k fra hovedgaden og g\u00e5 p\u00e5 opdagelse i husene i udkanten af byen. Calico minder om Den Gamle By i Aarhus, bare i amerikansk version.<\/p>\n

Du kan blandt andet pr\u00f8ve at g\u00e5 gennem en s\u00f8lvmine og se en udstilling om hvordan de udvandt s\u00f8lv i Calico. Der er ogs\u00e5 et museum med ting efterladt i Calico og om Calicos historie. Du kan ogs\u00e5 komme ud at k\u00f8re i et gammelt tog, som oprindeligt blev brugt i s\u00f8lvminerne. Og\u00a0l\u00f8rdag aften\u00a0er der Ghost Tours, hvor du kan h\u00f8re om de folk der aldrig helt forladte Calico. Og s\u00e5 kan b\u00f8rn naturligvis finde guld.<\/p>\n

\u00c5ret rundt er der en masse events og arrangementer, s\u00e5 tjek hvad der sker p\u00e5 deres hjemmeside<\/a> inden I ankommer.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To ultimative ture<\/h2>\n

Calico Ghost Town tilbyder to helt unikke oplevelser. Disse skal reserveres p\u00e5 forh\u00e5nd, hvis du vil v\u00e6re sikker p\u00e5, at der er en plads. Vi vil varmt anbefale disse ture.<\/p>\n

Deres Silver King Mine Tour er en 3-4 timers tur ned i Silver King Mine, der st\u00e5r som den blev forladt for 125 \u00e5r siden. Her f\u00e5r du muligheden for p\u00e5 egen krop at opleve hvordan det var at arbejde i en s\u00f8lvmine, blandt andet ved at deltage i at indsamle \u201cs\u00f8lv\u201d og transportere det ud af minen.<\/p>\n

Deres \u201c20 Mule Team Off-Road Adventure\u201d er en 32 km lang tur i en off-road jeep, der f\u00f8lger ruten for en tidligere jernbanelinje, der blev anvendt i forbindelse med boraks minearbejdet. P\u00e5 turen bes\u00f8ges sp\u00f8gelsesbyen Borate, som kun kan tilg\u00e5es via offroad k\u00f8ret\u00f8j, Tin Can Alley, Bismark og Odessa Mining Districts og hjemturen g\u00e5r via det smukke Philips Loop. Borate ligger ca. 5 km \u00f8st for Calico. I byen var der boraks-miner og bomuldsproduktion.<\/p>\n
