  • We were lucky enough to stumble across this old abandoned gold mine in the white mountains while exploring the Ancient Bristlecone Pine forest. We only had a short time to explore this area, but there is a ton of history here to find.

    When we went to the Bristlecone Pine reserve about a half mile uptrail from the parking area and museum, we saw the pine log cabin of the Mexican mine and it was larger and better preserved. We didn't find the shaft, but knew it was in the general area. We were on the way up that 4 mile loop so, we didn't get more than a few photos. There wa a plaque there and a little history of the mine and how it got it's name. It seems they shut it down around the late 1920's early 1930's...

      We were going to go to those cabins and mine, but found this one instead. Maybe next time.

    So... did a little research. It was a gold mine. The vein intersects the vertical shaft at depth of 45'. The vein was 5' thick.

    I googled the names of the 2 hunters at 7:34 on a whim and actually found their graves and a couple pictures of them. There's family listed there, might be cool to send them this video.

    Like #17, fully enjoyed, cuz that’s how we support each other! WHOA 😲 that’s an incredible find! There are places like that all over Arizona...makes you appreciate how far they traveled to build it, and how they lived miles from nowhere and made it! Great tour, if only the walls could talk...🙋‍♀️Lisa

    The dust mop chemicals is from the era 1950-60s so the site may have been active until the 50s sometime
