FEATURE - Bodie: Goldgräber Geisterstadt
Bridgeport, California, USA. Welcome to Bodie, or at least what reamins of it. Nestled into the Sierra Nevada mountain range at over 8000ft elevation, this ghost town was once one of the largest gold rush mining communities on the West Coast. Gold was discovered here in 1859 by Waterman S. Bodey and by the 1880s had grown to a peak population of around 8000 residents. Up to 30 lurcrative gold mines and associated industires opereated here, as well as 60 saloons, prostitute 'cribs' and opium dens on the seedier side of town. Mining decined in the 1900s with the last remainimg mine closing in 1942. The site was purchased by California State Parks in 1962 and has been preserved in a state of "arrested decay" ever since. Pictured: an old water well with mining and transportation equipment..

The Bakken shale North Dakota oil boom
July 2012 - North Dakota, United States: Pumpjacks dot the North Dakota prairie tapping into the Bakken formation. The oil boom is redrawing North Dakota's landscape and creating opportunity for thousands of unemployed Americans. However, the economic prosperity has exacerbated problems in housing, infrastructure and traffic.
Known for the beauty of its great plains, North Dakota has long been the least populated state in the country. Because of the Bakken oil boom, everyday, mostly men, pour in from across the nation looking for work. The small town of Williston has exploded as a result. Ten years ago Williston, North Dakota was a quiet agricultural town with a population around 12,000. In a decade the population has more than doubled to over 30,000. More than half of Williston's residents now work in oil-related jobs and the city's unemployment rate is at 1 percent, which is the lowest in the U.S.

The Bakken shale North Dakota oil boom
July 11, 2012 - Williston, North Dakota, United States: Men sleep in their cars on a rainy night in the Concordia Lutheran Church parking lot in Williston, North Dakota. New arrivals to Williston are often unprepared for the city's severe housing shortage driven by the influx of people looking for oil jobs. The oil boom is redrawing North Dakota's landscape and creating opportunity for thousands of unemployed Americans. However, the economic prosperity has exacerbated problems in housing, infrastructure and traffic. Hotels in the area are fully booked, RV camps cost upwards of $1000/month to park, and affordable apartments or houses are non-existent. The small church has 30 to 40 job-seekers sleeping inside the church on a typical night, with dozens more who stay in their vehicles in the church parking lot.

July 11, 2012 - Williston, North Dakota, United States: Men sleep in their cars on a rainy night in the Concordia Lutheran Church parking lot in Williston, North Dakota. New arrivals to Williston are often unprepared for the city's severe housing shortage driven by the influx of people looking for oil jobs. The oil boom is redrawing North Dakota's landscape and creating opportunity for thousands of unemployed Americans. However, the economic prosperity has exacerbated problems in housing, infrastructure and traffic. Hotels in the area are fully booked, RV camps cost upwards of $1000/month to park, and affordable apartments or houses are non-existent. The small church has 30 to 40 job-seekers sleeping inside the church on a typical night, with dozens more who stay in their vehicles in the church parking lot.

The Bakken shale North Dakota oil boom
July 2012 - North Dakota, United States: A man camp outside of Watford City, North Dakota. Theoil boom has brought unprecedented prosperity to little towns like Watford City, N.D. (population 1,744), it has also exacerbated problems in housing, infrastructure and traffic.
Williston ("Kuwait on the Prairie"), Watford City and their neighboring towns in North Dakota sit atop the biggest lake of oil to be discovered in North America since Alaska's Prudhoe Bay in 1968.
There are too many unfilled jobs and not enough empty beds to accommodate the masses of people looking for work in the oil boom, man camps have sprung up throughout the formerly idyllic prairie. They are dormitory-style buildings, FEMA trailers, or RV's, and a temporary solution to housing workers but are straining utilities and stretching towns emergency services.
