Agency: NF Region District: R1 Ranger District: GLACIER VIEW Forest Service Tract: Watershed Code: 17010206 Forest or Resource Area: FLATHEAD Owner: N Impact: Report: Old Emerson FH004228 The Old Emerson mine was described by Wood (1892) as a 102-foot tunnel striking N 18 E and intersecting six workable coal seams. The site was visited by MBMG in September 2000 and no evidence of the described tunnel or any other workings were found. The location given in the MILS database is section 33, T34N, R20W (Demers Ridge quadrangle). The North Fork Mine is located nearby and it may be that the workings from the two mines overlapped. |
