Mentryville Oil Ghost Town Rich in History

It's recognizable from several tv and movie productions but also draws a crowd for its reputation for being haunted.

Yosemite Travel Tips from First Timers (and one on...

We received a lot of advice about getting to Yosemite early, parking in one of the main lots and then taking the Shuttle, which takes you to just about every popular place, or you can hike from those popular places to where you want to be.
