Happy Sunday Everyone!
I'm finally getting caught up on editing/posting videos from the July 4th weekend on the Alpine Loop in Colorado. HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME! Absolutely love the terrain, 4x4 trails, and mining ruins in these parts. In today's video, I wake up at a campsite with an elevation of 11,979ft (almost 12K!!!!) and then went over the pass to check out the Empire Chief Mine and Mill Ruins (https://coloradoencyclopedia.org/article/empire-chief-mine-and-mill). Very interesting history, I was surprised to learn there were only a few years of slim profits from this particular mine. Thanks for tuning in, enjoy your day! ~ Brian & Sierra
