(Courtesy of Los Alamos National Laboratory) Los Alamos Ranch School emerged atop the Pajarito plateau in 1917, fulfilling the dream of Ashley Pond, a free-spirited businessman from Detroit. He could have never imagined that the campus, an outdoor sanctuary for burgeoning young men, would become the site of one of the country’s most celebrated, and deadly, scientific achievements – the atomic bomb. The campus also gave rise to Bathtub Row, one of the most prominent and unusually named streets in the area.
