The Hunt for Silver

  • 3 years ago
High up a steep and craggy mountain range I take you to an ore chute that is precariously hanging onto the precipice, fighting against gravity to keep from crashing into the abyss below.

Now that I have waxed poetic, this is the upper portion of a large silver mining operation which was in operation from around 1910 to the 1930s. With some minor revivals in the 1950s and 1970s
