Leadfield, California
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Leadfield is a ghost town located in Death Valley National Park, California.
It was a short-lived gold mining town in the early 20th century. The population peaked at around 300 in 1926, with a post office opening in August of that year. However, by February 1927, the post office closed down and the town died.
As of 2005, the remains of the town include a few rusted metal sheds and two locked, abandoned mines. The town is reachable by Titus Canyon Road.
