This one's been eluding me for a while - I would go the allotted distance and still not see a mine... went a little further to this fence and still no mine
About a week ago, I tried again on a hike that my son and I took on the Mine Gulch trail (which spurs off the wagon road). This led us to the mine cabin - it's really a double spur. We lost the trail after that (this is what happens when you leave the topo at home). Finally I looked it up online and found it was simply just past that stupid fence.
So yesterday the fiance and I hiked all the way to the mine. It was a WARM Saturday morning and there were lots of people there - too many to get too close. We had the two dogs and they had dogs, and the fools were exploring the mine. Something about condemned buildings - I was happy to view it from a distance.
Unfortunately my Runkeeper App keeps resetting when I use my camera. So, I was only able to record the way back - you get the gist of it.See it on Runkeeper, sorta
Not the mine wagon trail - this is via a spur off the Mine Gulch Trail (Trailhead also in Vincent Gap)
