Ely day 2






Today we saw a national park, caves with formations, charcoal ovens, and went on a historic train ride. We drove to Great Basin National Park and took a cave tour with beautiful stalactite's, and stalagmites in 40 degree temperature. The we drove up to 10,000 feet to the summit of the park. We then went to see charcoal ovens where wood used to be made into charcoal. They are like brick teepees as you can see in the picture. Then we hopped a train ride through historical mining town of Ely. Mona insisted on coming with us. They are original restored trains.
