Lake Valley, New Mexico

I'm back in front of a computer and can post again! Went to Southern New Mexico for a bit seeking some Old West vibes.

This is the Lake Valley ghost town. There were only five structures still standing. It was a silver mine town with 4000 people living there from 1893. The silver market crashed and so did the town.
