Under California – California’s Gold (509)
Join Huell and trace the lives of two men whose unique dreams in the early part of the century helped them to create two of our state’s most amazing buried treasures. First, we visit the Underground Gardens of Baldasare Forestiere and the incredible labyrinth of tunnels, courtyards and vines. Next, we visit the Burro Schmidt Tunnel, where for 50 years an early pioneer of the Mojave dug a 2,000 foot tunnel through a mountain.
