Goler Gulch...

According to legend, Death Valley pioneer John Goler found signs of gold in the El Paso Mountains, while he was making his way back to Los Angeles.  He was never able to find his "lost" gold, but others followed in pursuit of the gold. 

The area shown in this photo (which I took in May, 2018) is known as "Goler Gulch", in the El Paso Mountains.  By 1893, there was a mining settlement here, but, as with most such settlements, only a few crumbling foundations and some rusty pipes remain.
