I want to add that my friend, David A. Wright, mentioned in my narrative had a website on backcountry roads. I believe it was called Reconnoitering in the Eastern Sierra. David stopped doing the website several years back and removed it. It was a site I used often and I suspect several of the old timers here will remember it.

I much enjoy your reports and inclusion of geology and mining history. And as a reformed geologist, I always notice the proper use of topographic maps as indicated by Julies task of "staying found" as your traverse proceeds.  

 

Fine, fine effort, as always!  Thanks!

Foy, you are so kind, thank you. Also, I appreciate the large font! It eliminates copy and paste of the posts I want to read to another document and enlarge. The old eyes are getting better since the last surgery................ah, but that will come up in the next trip story.

Thanks Ski for the latest adventure.

The history you tell us about from ate areas you travel

is very interesting to read.

It' always amazes me all the "huge" pieces of machinery

left behind and how they were delivered to some of these

far off places.

Keep on telling your great stories.

Ski, another interesting trip report. There is so much the Earth has to share with us. Those old mines are like ghosts from the past, yet they speak to you as you wander through the debris field of tallings and old equipment. Thanks, jd
