it's a really cool mine - super big and, while you could easily drive back even further, it gets harder and harder to turn around the deeper you go. if you're willing to do some climbing, there's a network of shafts going everywhere.

It was one hell of an adventure for us. Even with the issues on the Jeep we had a great time

btw, Elvis found a rattle snake to bite along the 58 as we waited for our tow. Luckily it didnt bite back!

You gotta be careful in mines...the snakes definitely like them.

That mine looked crazy! Was there a noticeable temperature change?
