Looks like something the democrats got a hold of

Well, this is about as good an example of 'revisionist history' as any on Tiburcio Vasquez. Firstly, and very importantly, there was no Robbers Roost Ranch. Robbers Roost did indeed exist and still does, but it refers to an outcropping of boulders up on a low, rocky hill overlooking 'Freeman Junction'. 'Coyote Holes' (aka Freeman Junction) operated from about 1874 to 1915. In 1873 or early 1874, Freeman S. Raymond, who was an original 49er, bought or built a stagecoach station at the junction of Walker Pass Road (modern day Highway 178) and the road to Los Angeles (modern day State Route 14); both roads carried traffic to and from the mines in the area. The Walker Pass road led to the Kern River mines, and the Los Angeles road continued further north and east to the mines at Cerro Gordo, the Panamints, and later Darwin and Bodie. In February of 1874, bandits led by Tiburio Vasquez robbed several freight wagon crews at Raymond’s (Freeman-Coyote Holes) station, as they had apparently scouted out the location from a nearby hideout known as Robbers Roost. Raymond continued to use the station, which after 1889 or 1890 included a post office, until his death in 1909. Stage drivers were always glad to come within sight of the place as it offered a respite from the hot sun as well as water for beasts of burdeon. However, long before, THIS is where Tiburcio and his bandits oft times met to plan their next heist. Its actual location was just about 100 feet south of, on the west side of the intersection of Walker Pass (hwy 178 and highway 14). From this location looking west/southwest up onto the shallow foothills IS the location of 'Robbers Roost' (the boulders offering cover for bandits) awaiting shipments of silver, gold, or just coachbound travelers, which were easily spotted from the 'roost' above before swooping down at full gallop to intercept the stages. * I appreciate the effort to highlight history and its colorful characters, but please put in the due diligence for sake of accuracy.

It reminds me of a swarm of bee's looking for a place to make a hive.

that place has been posted on UA-cam a million times boring zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

That is definitely a lot of shoes old and new looking ones draped over the remnants of the building and bushes around this property that looks like an old gas station from the 50's or 60's and this is really awesome thanks for showing this. 🎶🇺🇲🇺🇲🎶

WHY NO MENTION OF CLARK GABLE AND CAROLE LOMBARD AND THEIR HONEYMOON SUITE ????? SUITE #15. I GUESS NO MOVIE FANS HERE.

This is really very interesting to hear about Tiburcio Vasquez and his Robber's Roost Ranch this is great to see thank you. ☕👋🇺🇲

Half told stories.. even Crystal Lake turned green in 1970s.. "acid rani" was blamed. Turns out they just needed to add some ash, similar to managing a swimming pool. Lake turns crystal clear again, and fish stop floating upside down. Fact check me.

One nice house with PLANTS out of all that shit.

been there nothing special

This is an awesome place to see especially in this area of California out in the desert thanks for showing this Thank You.👍🇺🇲

It's a haven for losers and lunatics. Even the Navy SEALS at the facility 15 miles east of the town wish the place would be JDAM'd off the map. There, and Slab City, too. Both are shit holes full of shit.

Can you picture yourself here on a perfect evening, watching the sunset? The sky painted in shades of orange and purple, a cool breeze in the air, a cold drink in hand, and a warm fire ready to light up the night.

100%a tourist trap

I was born in South Dakota and I think that's the first wooden grain elevator i've ever seen. it looks like a take on a log cabin

I really enjoy watching videos about old ghost towns like this especially in very rural areas and just look at the history of these old towns and the beautiful countryside thank you.🏘️🇺🇲

Sandy Shores

I am pappy and Harriet's Granddaughter and you got it right but so wrong buddy, maybe you should talk to my family before you made this video

This is Great day trip, great shows and food. Highly recommend it!

Ocean or polluted pond water will be ideal for @EirexTech the 5 year old Energetic Cavitation Impact technology that Prof. Marc Ramsey experimented with at Vanderbilt University producing vast amounts of free energy over 400,000 pounds per square inch (PSI) in comparison to car tires at 32 PSI using water and bubbles the size of BB pellet. The EirexTech will make ocean water for the Salton Sea, Laguna Salada(MEX) and Death Valley into Life Valley instead.

It’s not real but cool to visit excellent food at the saloon

Advice for curious - read dasrath manji story of india who built a road through mountain with hand tools. This process took 22 years.

Interesting video, so thanks for putting it together. Great job! I just looked up Silver City Ghost Town near Lake Isabella and just might take a trip to check it out myself. Cheers!

bro , people were buried in the 1800s there. ive gone through that whole cemetery

walter knott didnt do a charity move. he donated it because of politics and gave the crappy state of california a big FU to the state. im there about 4-5 times a year

Cool content 👌.

Fun fact: 3759 (aka the engine in the vid) pulled the final steam run on the Santa Fe

The whole town is rebuilt. It was built by Walter Knott, founder of Knott's Berry Farm as an added attraction. Only a handful of original buildings were actually restored. The schoolhouse, for example, is just a total reproduction.

The sundial at redding Carolina is 12 time's bigger

Commonly referred to as BISON 🤦‍♀️ Please stop calling a cat a dog. They are different animals. Help teach appropriate names. Let's make that commonplace.

the waters fine , it’s the same water source as Palm Springs..the power is almost always on and good.. and there is a small grocery store in town

What I'd give to see untouched America with thousands of buffalos.

looks like trevor's place in sandy shores in gta

You keep your buffalo. I’ll keep eating my fatty beef. I’ve had buffalo. It’s just damn dry.
