Little Floridas Trip 09/12/2018

Dillon and I loaded up went to coffee then out to adobe Deli…The goal, check out the East side of the little Florida Mountain.



Above is the plot of the trip consisting of only 11 miles..But it was an awesome 11 miles including a couple of butt puckers…



Short Video 



This is the first mine we saw.




 The Needles Eye..


Look closely and see the corrugated conduit, It's a mine entrance.




 Long way off view of  a bustling mining claim at one time.




Looking down on one of the many concrete structures in the area..


Locked top entrance to a Vertical shaft.


 Needles Eye from the other direction.

Steel fence to keep us safe and out of the mines...



A pucker point in the trip, very narrow passage over the top of a mine that is covered with 1/2" cable mesh to keep people out.

 A look from above..Looking down at the first mine, 5 4 wheeler s had just left. 1 still there..
