Drone's-eye view of the old Goler town site. This town came into being during 1893, in the wake of prospector John Goler's claims of having found gold nuggets lying on the ground near a local spring.
Although gold was found, it was not enough to sustain the town. By the early twentieth century, most prospectors had moved on to the nearby Rand Mountains(which can be seen in the distance.)
Today, only some rusty pipe and a few crumbling foundations remain. At least one old foundation can be seen in this photo, if you look closely.
