Customer Reviews
Very cool mining relics, also saw the chassis and rear end of an early 1900s car. Not as cool as Ashton or Independence, but worth the drive. Make sure and push on to Winfield too.
Some historic buildings amongst active seasonal residences. You do not need 4WD or high clearance to get here; standard clearance is fine.
As listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Reference #77000364. 8 miles down a dirt road (County Rd 390, off of US24) will be bring you to this old mining town. Very interesting. Another 4 miles and you'll make it to Winfield Mining Camp. The road is fairly easy driving.
Was NOT worth the rough, wash-board dirt road leading up there! Only a couple of buildings. A couple of windows you could peek thru, not very well kept up.
Much machinery from the time, and a pleasant tree lined street adjacent
