WILDROSE CHARCOAL KILNS

These kilns were used in Death Valley to make charcoal. Wood was gathered, paked into the kilns and burned into charcoal.
The charcoal was used to smelt silver/gold from ore.
Because of the weather in Death Valley, these kilns are the best preserved in the US.
This is a picture of the inside of the kiln.
