Trail Information

Highlights

Definitely a worthwhile spur off of Barlow Canyon this road leads to one of the best mines in the area. The road up is really nice, although only half a mile long. Once you are at the top of the trail, there is a mine back and to the left in the rock hill. You can see where the old entrance used to be, an open gated entrance, and a grate over another shaft. If you venture the other direction from the road, you will see some tailings from that mine.

Cool offshoot to explore. Worth the very short detour if your in Barlow Canyon.

I like this trail. Cool snow trail, currently the trail is 75 percent snow and prob get 7-8 inch depth. Due to snow I didn't venture out to see the mines , but beautiful area. Fullsize tundra made it. Video here , Barlow canyon is about the 1:09 mark to the 9:40 mark

Worth checking out. The mine is a nice cool place to take a break. Was like 40degrees cooler out of the sun on a 100 degree day.

This is a neat little spur to take. Too bad everything is closed off! Exploring these mines would be quite incredible.
