Bordeaux

Tucked away in Thurston County, Washington, Bordeaux is a ghost town whose story ended in the 1940s once the surrounding timber had been fully harvested and the economic reason for its existence disappeared.

Visitors today will find little more than the quiet remnants of a community that vanished alongside the industry that built it. The setting itself — wooded Thurston County — provides the main draw for anyone curious about Washington's logging heritage.
