Just coming into Lone Pine is this tree and info sign. The tree is a pendunculate oak tree from Sherwood forest, England, and was planted as a sprout about 1900, here on the old Harvey Ranch.

Now headed toward Death Valley on Hwy 136 on the east side of Owens Lake. Actually, I'm on Dolomite Loop which runs mostly parallel to Hwy 136 through the town of Dolomite (now gone?).

This marker says the dolomitic limestone mines are still in operation and in fact are the largest in the US. Found in 1862, the remote location delayed actual mining operations until 1885.

Hwy 136 seems old enough. Apparently there is another, older one.

What looks like a building in the previous shot is just a wall now.

As the slightly sarcastic, though accurate, note on the surfboard says, 'the beautiful setting is provided by the LA water district' which diverted most of the water to the Los Angeles region.
