Description:
Stock vehicles can reach Sunflower
mine. The hard parts start after the mine.
Sunflower mine (a mercury mine) still stands, its the large building
at the bottom of the hill, just past gps cord #3 (make a hard left and
go up the hill). There is a mine shaft at this turnoff. Fairly deep
mine shaft.
After the mine, the road narrows.
Becomes rocky as your twist and turn through the river bed. Then you'll
come to a switchback with a nasty hill to start with. Then hold on for
a steep uphill climb with loose rocks. once your reach the top of the
hill there's 3 trails to choose from. its the trail to left on the right
side marked 201A. Road isn't too bad from there out. Once you near gps
point 6 you'll see TWO mines on the left side. The first one has water
leaking out of it. the second one has a small openeing, but its very
very long and forks to the left and right. Be sure to bring a spot light.
