  • The Chinook Mine was a gold mine in the Summit District that consisted of two adits. This was a wet explore that I’ve been meaning to get into for a few years now. Join along as we have a look inside.

    Those tunnels look to be quite tall and wide for what appears to be just prospects. Usually don't see something like that unless it's a big crosscut/haulage tunnel or rubber tire vehicles were used in there, but that's not the case. There are rails in it. They must have found something real interesting up above to tunnel in below it and make such large tunnels.

      Yeah I can’t find any info on these two adits even though they are marked on the usgs map, so I don’t know what kind of production there was. Thanks for watching
