Yes, that area was worked. The area east of there is virgin. That's where the Eastern Drift is.

Its great that you add modern day photos of the area , it really brings the story to life.

How about a photo of each area marked on jeds map if you can pin point each marked area.

I think I have done that over the time of posting but not all at once. Let me see if I can find the photos again and put them all on one post.

Some pipe left over from the old timers of the hydraulic mining days of the 1800's.

A noise caused one of my partners to take cover. Just to the right was a bobcat.

That's a close rock slide. I would not like to be close to the large rock while it's moving.🤕

It was actually pretty stable there but agree that rock slides are dangerous. Old mines can be dangerous.
