I Explored California's Hottest Forgotten Ghost Town... 117 degrees... 3,200 people vanished

Join me as I explore the abandoned Tumco Ghost Town in California's Cargo Muchacho Mountains. Once home to thousands of gold miners during the late 1800s, Tumco was one of Southern California's biggest mining towns before it was abandoned and left to the desert. In this episode of Frito the Wanderer, we'll uncover the history of the gold mines, explore the remaining ruins, visit the old cemetery, and discover what caused this once-booming town to disappear.
