    Great video. It's more of what people need to see not just Industry and Town but the Natural beauty around it. I would love to visit

    Came here for a secret desert rave this past weekend and the way to get there was sure as hell an adventure but when we finally got there we were breathless as to what we had gotten ourselves into and the clear sky at night allowed us to see the Milky Way alongside thousands of stars. Truly an amazing experience, not even mentioning we had a fun night dancing under the stars

    Just purchased a property in this unique once company town. A rather earth shaking experience so far as well may I add! Love the music! As well as the history behind this unique place!

      @@davidgalvan6189 Honest not certain I bought. Like anything depends I believe on what you're looking for as well as availability. I was told there are a few apartments in town then again not certain on prices.

      @@mickloving9737 Honestly no different. Perhaps that's the sad part not much has changed. Then not like I expected all that much too. If the town wants to grow it needs to incorporate as a City. Elect local politicians in town familar with the town too. Not a seldom seen Supervisor from San Bernardino. My attitude is there be no real perfect scenario. One we get more attention from the County I'd assume if the town was incorporated. Then too it will cost more to live here as well. One really needs a pioneer spirit to live in Trona. Be very interesting with the water rights what will become of Trona in a few years if that's not clarified soon.

    The Pinnacles are a hidden SoCal gem as well as the town.
