It trends N37W, and the portal opening was 4 ft by 6 ft high. The portal was partially caved but still accessible. The trail above is used by recreationalists (horses and hikers). There is a small storage area to the left just inside the adit. The quartz/arsenopyrite veins are 0.2 ft wide and are hosted by pervasively limonite-stained folded and sheared quartz-cummingtonite schist (Stotelmeyer and others, 1983). |
