Some 40 miles east of what would become the boom towns of Bonanza and Custer City, Bayhorse got an earlier start in 1864 when a few small gold veins were found.
Let's Go to Bayhorse, Idaho – Silver in the Yankee Fork Mining District –


You are looking at the face of a person who lived 15,000 years ago.
The finds of a modern human found in a limestone cave in France in 1911 were thought to belong to a female individual due to the size of the pelvis, and because the wisdom teeth in the skull had not yet erupted, it was named the Girl of Magdalena. However, in the later X-ray scan, it was determined that the wisdom teeth were impacted, and it was claimed that it belonged to a woman who died between the ages of 25-35.
The image of the skull, which was damaged during its discovery and then restored incorrectly, was reconstructed by scanning using the possibilities of today's technology, and French sculptor Elisabeth Daynes, based on these data, prepared the model you see now and gave life to the Magdelena Woman.
Named after her time, the Magdalene Woman has high cheekbones and a mysterious smile similar to that of the Mona Lisa. She lived before the ice age and at a time when dogs were domesticated.


A family at their ramshackle homestead shack outside of Guthrie, Oklahoma, 1889.No doubt they were homesteaders from the 1889 land run. A free 1/4 section of land if you build a place to live, and raise crops.
Tough people making a hard living. No electricity, no running water, no cell phones! Gasp.
