Accident Mine

Sorry the pics are sideways.  Can't seem to fix them.
 Looking up at Accident Mine.  Going to be a hike!
 Old wood box lid.  Pretty cool.
 Made it up the the mines and the old ore shoot.
 Looking back down to where I parked
 Silver ore vein.  Finally found some!

 Tracks to the mine
 Here is where the cables from the old ore tram were landed.  They carved a loop through the rock to wrap the cables around.  Seems plenty strong!
 Another ore vein


 Old explosives box
 Looks inviting.
 Old winch for pulling ore cars up the incline in the mine.
 The incline the winch was for.
 Ladder going up to another level.  I didn't try it!
 Some old dates.  1927 and 1949 were the oldest I saw.
