After following a Jeep trail for 14 miles up a wash, we came to a miner's cabin with a nice mineral vein behind it. After checking out the cabin, we continued down another canyon and found an interesting mine. This 1910era silver mine featured beautiful natural unmilled timbering, which was used for supporting the drift as well as for track ties. Copper and lead were also taken from this mine as secondary ores to silver. There is also a nice winze shaft going down about 75 feet with the skip track still intact. We climbed down the skip track to see what was down below. We found a few artifacts, one of which we have never seen before.
We hope you enjoy the video!
