A tour of several mining camps that still have cabins and other standing structures found in the back-country of the Mojave Preserve. Always remember when traveling anywhere in the desert, be prepared for anything. Always carry enough water and food. It is also a good idea to carry an extra 5 gallons of gas. One never knows what can happen. https://www.patreon.com/deserttrails

Outside of Cima in the Mojave Preserve is this neat mine along with the original buildings at the mine camp. Many people who travel and explore the Mojave desert have probably already visited these abandoned houses. https://www.patreon.com/deserttrails

Discovered in 1913. Not much in the way of production until In 1919, the mine had new owners and they produced 628 flasks using a 2-pipe retort. From 1920 until 1928, lessees worked the property recovering around 80 flasks per year. In 1929, the mine was bonded to a new Company, and a 30-ton Cottrell furnace was installed. From 1930-31, and around 34 more flasks were produced. Sporadic work was once again done by lessees from 1931 until 1939, was sold. The following year a rich body of ore was discovered, and from 1940-41 between 1200 and 1300 more flasks were recovered. The property has been idle since, with total production recorded at 2766 flasks in 1943. https://www.patreon.com/deserttrails

Was exploring the mountains outside of Wikenburg when I got caught in a series of flash floods. When the waters subsided I made a break for it, just ahead of another storm. In the end I managed to get in front of the flood waters. https://www.patreon.com/deserttrails

In the San Domingo Wash, southwest of Wickenburg stands a strange mill site. Built and ran by two brothers it was used to abstract musovite mica from granite pegmatites. This mica is used for electrical and heat insulation, as well, it was used as a additive for joint compounds and paints. The mill stopped operation in 1951. https://www.patreon.com/deserttrails

While trying to reach another mine site, we stumbled across this mine that does not appear on maps. So here is the explore of the tunnel.

Discovered in the early 1900s, the Log Cabin Mine was one of the largest producers of gold in California.

A former gold mine, the Mary Ellen is starting to collapse with many section already to sketchy to enter. This mine won't be around much longer.

Came across a makeshift drag line operation.

Another high altitude mine known as the fillmore. Only one tunnel remains accessible. So here is a short explore of the tunnel.

At almost 10,000 feet I wanted to take you on a tour of this mine shaft, but it had been filled in since the last time I was in the area many years ago. To bad.

Came across this small mining camp high up in the mountains of White Pine County Nevada. The property was under claim, so I did not explore the tunnels or shafts, but here is the outbuildings.

Took the wrong trail heading up to a mine and I ended up stumbling upon this little homestead. Sometimes it is good when you take the wrong turn.
