Right! It's always a mandatory stop for us

cheap secluded fun during the winter but 120 during the summer and random wind storms with drifting sand

When I was young I lived in Baker. My Mother worked at Big Boy Hamburger Restaurant. In the 60s!

thank you for sharing!

I wonder what it would be like for people that actually played at that water park to see how it looks now. I wish people would send you pictures of their times there. That would be so cool to see.

You hit all the places I have vids on in one vid 😂 Nice to see most of the stuff still standing years later. The concrete building in Ludlow that's half collapsed used to be the old Murphy Bros general store. I read somewhere that it partially collapsed from an earthquake years back. It is sad to see so much more graffiti now at Arne's, I don't recall nearly that much the last time I was there. There's a movie called "The big empty" that was filmed at Arne's for the majority of the movie, gives a good idea of what the interior was like back in the day. Cheers.

When I was a college geology student in the 1960's, I had a field project in the mtns NW of Baker. I spent nights in the Royal Hawaiian motel, ate meals at historic Pikes restaurant across the street. (Pikes burned down several years ago.) I never used the swimming pool, but the motel was nice then.

BTW: Ludlow was the southern terminus for the Tonopah & Tidewater Railroad. Their shops, yard, and HQ were at the west end of Ludlow. Ruins still exist there. @@jessiesdroneadventures7464

Hello. I sure wish those places were for sale because I would fix up the house and the motel building and any other buildings and figure out how fix them up and open the place back up.👍

I believe the old Delores Water Park is for sale. Almost 300 acres of desert dirt and abandoned structures BUT the water rights are enticing. 11 million I hear. Lol. It last sold for 1.5 million

Very cool, kid 🔥

My roommate told me about lake Dolores and some of the sick rides. People talk about the future destruction of America but all across the land you can see the past towns and things destroyed by weather, elements, economic conditions like mines closing. Its just really sad.
