Great story and fantastic pictures Chris... thank you. Brings back some memories of when I was a kid, back in the late 50s early 60s when we toured the Comstock silver mine in Virginia City. Back then for a couple bucks they would walk you a half mile into the mountain, through the muck and puddles and over the old ore cart tracks showing you all the old equipment and timbers along the way... when we got to the end of the tunnel they turned off all the lights so you could see what total dark was like if your candle was to blow out or something like that. fun times before we litigated our way out of those kind of experiences, for our own good Im sure.
