Steep but short coming from 22nd street Trailhead. Using Google maps will be key to finding the mine shaft because the trail is not completely clear. Youll make a turn heading east off of the hidden valley trail to get to the mine opening. Remember to bring a flashlight. The mine goes down quite aways then ends suddenly to an endless pit.
Easy to find. A steep, loose trail leads up to it from the hidden valley trail. Tried to camp at the mouth of the mine. Do not recommend. The first pic is the entrance. Its steeper than it looks. Second pic is the vertical shaft at the end. Last pic is a 2 bolt anchor directly above the shaft. Questionable bolts.
Great place to watch the sunset!
Beautiful views, and awesome mine shaft! It is off the trail though so make sure you look at Google Maps. Be sure to bring a flashlight!
Great hike for all levels! Beautiful!
