To get it, download the free Sutro World @ www.sutromedia.com/world (or find Sutro World on iTunes App store).
THEN sort by name: Sydney's Living History - AND click the price in the upper right corner and watch it download.
Is it a ghost town? Half the town is in ruins and almost all business is gone, yet there are still 65 hardy souls that live here, along with a saloon and gift shop. Come along with The World on Wheels as we visit the Gold Rush...ghost town?...of Hornitos, California. Brand new report with pics and video: http://tinyurl.com/buuh6az
One of the richest gold mining areas was the south end of California's Motherlode where a few mines still operate.

Fremont, but offers a great, relaxing escape from the bustling cities below. With plenty of pictures and a new video: http://tinyurl.com/8xz26bt
