When visiting the homestead last month, we went over to the ghost town of Blitzen. This was the biggest town close to the homestead. It had a hotel, store, post office and several homes. There aren't many buildings standing and those that are appear pretty shaky. 13 years ago when we were there there were more buildings standing and you could drive to the town. Roaring Springs Ranch has closed off the road and locked the gates from the Rock Creek side.
