2 Million Ounces of Gold, 30 Million Ounces of Silver. The Mayflower Mill.
The Mayflower Gold Mill in San Juan County, Colorado. The mill operated from 1930 until 1991 (with a 12 year shut down) resulting in 49 years of operation. Production included 1,940,000 ounces of gold; 30,000,000 ounces of silver; and 1,000,000 tons of various base metals.

Old Hundred Mine tour, Silverton Colorado Part 11
A view of the old Boarding House up at the elevation of the original mine site. It's about 2500 feet above the current level. You can also see remnants of the old aerial cableway that carried ore down to the large Mill, which is behind me and down about 300 feet. Crazy that they built a house way the hell up there.

Vicksburg Colorado Historical Town or Ghost Town
YEPWELP! Please take a trip with me into history. Vicksburg is a small piece of Colorado gold mining history. Gold prospecting in Colorado by a just a few miners happen to stumble upon an abundance of minerals including Colorado GOLD in Clear Creek Canyon. This was the first step in now what is the astonishing and historical town or ghost town of Vicksburg. Surrounded by the beautiful Colorado Rocky Mountains and Clear Creek it is a small breathtaking view of Colorado gold mining history. I was truly amazed by the amount of passion, dedication and craftsmanship it took to create the historical town of Vicksburg. At its peak it was the 2nd largest town and mining camp located in Clear Creek Canyon. I highly recommend you take a trip to personally feel the history and take a step back in time to experience what Vicksburg truly has to offer.
Thank you so much to the Clear Creek Historical Society of Chaffee County, the passionate miners and state of Colorado to provide us with the opportunity to view this amazing place!
Please make sure to LIKE, COMMENT, & SUBSCRIBE. I appreciate each and every view, like, comment & subscriber.
As always thank YOU so much for taking a small part of your day to spend it with me. I hope I was able to provide you with some entertainment, information, or possibly some inspiration to put a smile on your face. :)
South Mineral Creek, CO 2011
South Mineral would easily be one of the top classic runs in the state if the crux gorge of the run, primetime gorge, were only just another 1/2 mile or mile longer. Unfortunately, it never quite comes together so it's a lot of work and requires a lot of laps to get the full creeking fix. Regardless, it's one of the most beautiful and scenic runs in Colorado.
