Went on a trail called the Prospector's Trail today. A relatively short day hike. A few steep spots and some amazing views of the town of Idaho Springs. There are two old mine holes on it. The first one pictured here is an open pit still. Be very careful. It was a ways down. Hard to imagine the miners digging through the rock. The second pit was filled in and was only found by the orange tailings pile and a sunken area currently filled with snow.
