Badass! Nice photos too!!

Aye!
Merry Christmas by the way!

Columbine Spring is flowing very well!

Cedar Glen is trickling. Not too much water at the top pool but a bit on the bottom.

The real name of the mine is the Lytle Creek Mine. https://mrdata.usgs.gov/mrds/show-mrds. ... d=10189154
Just explored it yesterday. There was a cute chipmunk living inside! There are three adits. One next to the trail, one above that, and another one above that. Have fun exploring!

Making an update for the Kelly Camp Spring!!! First update in 8 years!!!!!! There is no water. Completely dry.

We need help with excavating it. I am sorry about your tools but we have been taking our tools to and from the mine.

Hello everyone! about 6 months ago, my brother, 1blazepatrick1 and I were excavating the mcnally mine in las flores canyon when we decided to find the mystery #5 tunnel. CrazyHermit made a wonderful blog post about the mcnally mine which he referenced in his website as The New TunnelI . I found what...

So... I found a map that is zoomed out a bit... But shows the outlines of the rectangular claims overlayed on an old topo of echo mountain etc.

There's also the township/section corner point. That point together with the two railroad ends are inconsistent. But looking at the other panels in that plat set, it looks like the section boundary line isn't drawn consistently, so maybe ignoring it (like you did) is the right answer. Tool lazy to ...

This post reminded me to try to overlay this map onto any modern map, like you have done here. I just played around with it, and it really looks like this map of plats is crooked, and doesn't line up. Were you able to get good alignment? Not really. My only two familiar points on the plat map was t...

Hello everyone. I found a bunch of old land surveys from the 1880s and on and I found one particular one of interest to me. Basically what the map is showing are the locations of mining claims in the section, range, township format. I downloaded an overlay on google earth to show the township range ...

Me and my brother re-excavated Bryant's exploratory mine. After we got out of the mine, my brother and I began to walk back out when we heard a sound like birds flying. About 200 feet to the left of Bryant's mine was a massive landslide which happened before our eyes! A huge chunk of the canyon wal...

After we got put of the mine, my brother and I began to walk back out when we heard a sound like birds flying. About 200 feet to the left of Bryant's mine was a massive landslide which happened before our eyes! A huge chunk of the canyon wall fell out, crashing on the ground creating a massive clou...

So. Today, I explored pine canyon for a bit. I have been through three of the mines in the canyon prior to today's exploration. Me and my brother re-excavated Bryant's exploratory mine. https://eispiraten.com/images-archived/uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180428/c13c95ee65ee4f798b189c5b918c08a8.jpg http...

Paul Ayers posted it. I have many of his books rest in peace.

Congratulations Dima!!! Thats a lot of work and effort and I commend you for it. Thats very inspirational. Thank You.

I am personally a fan of the MRDS by USGS. That helps me find mines pretty well.

Here is a website which shows the "heatmap" for routes taken by people using the Strava App. https://labs.strava.com/heatmap/#10.80/ ... 09/hot/all Basically the map shows the brightest routes as routes most travelled and the dim routes as routes less travelled. This should be a great tool...
