RecStrats: The final two RecStrats public workshops, "High-Altitude Training and Trails” and “Linkages & Priorities,” are set for June 8 and June 23, respectively, from 4–7 p.m. at the Community Center. Follow all of the action at www.recstrats.com.
Summer of Stewardship MLTS Trail Days: MLTPA and Friends of the Inyo are bringing you a third season of this popular trail-stewardship series, kicking off six Trail Day events at 8:30 a.m. on July 2 at the Sherwin Lakes Trailhead/Mammoth Rock Trail. Bring a friend, get dirty, and be rewarded with lunch and free prizes for your hard work! Email info@mltpa.org for the complete schedule and details.
Sherwins Area Recreation Plan (SHARP): Two very exciting things are in the works! First, we’re reconvening the SHARP Trails Technical Committee for season #2. Help us refine the original SHARP alignments for a group of trails in the Mill City Area using inclinometers, flagging, and lots of tromping around in the sagebrush. Second, we’re gearing up to build our first section of trail in the fall, a link between the Lakes Basin Path and the Panorama Dome Trailhead. Get your name on the list for either or both committees by sending an email to info@mltpa.org.
MLTPA Photo Library: Going for a hike or a ride? Putting together a recreation event in Mammoth Lakes and need it photographed? MLTPA and Mammoth Lakes Tourism are working together to establish a photo library of all that goes on here in Mammoth Lakes, and all we need are things to shoot! Send us an email at info@mltpa.org to let us know where and when to show up!

( 3 / 4442 )Laws RailRoad Museum
California's historical Landmark No. 953
Formed in February 1964 captures the history of the train era between Nevada and California. It was in 1880 the Carson and Colorado Railroad Company was formed and incorporated. It was planned to run from Mound House, Nevada and Carson River to the Colorado River. However it never reached the Colorado River but stopped short at Keeler, California. With the railraod running west people started arriving at the Owner River.It was in April of 1883 that the first train arrived to what is now know as Laws. Not only was a train depot built, additionally a hotel,eating house,boarding house,pool hall,warehouse barber shop and several industrial buildings.Ranchers would also use the railroad to ship their crops.
The decline and Laws and the railroad over the years was a result of local mines closing, trucking becoming cheaper than rail freight and the City of Los Angeles buying most of the valley for the water rights.
The railroad was often refered to as "the railroad tha was built 300 miles too long or 300 years too soon."
For a complete history and an amazing trip through time visit the Laws Railroad Museum.
