Agency: NF Region District: R1 Ranger District: WEST FORK Forest Service Tract: Watershed Code: 17010205 Forest or Resource Area: BITTERROOT Owner: N Impact: U Report: Copper Canyon (RA002030) This site was visited on 09/13/01 by MBMG staff. No environmental concerns were noted. One shaft on the Copper Canyon No. 1 claim is in tracts AACA sec. 20, T.3S., R.22W. It is shown on a USFS sketch map of the area and also on a figure in Sahinen (1957). A second shaft as described in Sahinen (1957) is in sec. 21 on the Silvertip No. 2 claim. It is described separately in this report as the Lucky Strike shaft. Two adits were also associated with the Copper Canyon property (Sahinen, 1957). One was located to the north and west of the Lucky Strike and almost due north of the main shaft at the Copper Canyon. It was partly collapsed with a 3 ft by 3 ft opening and dry. It was open at least 20 ft and the size of the waste-rock dump suggested that it may be 60-80 ft total length. There were two prospect pits on either side of the adits. The second adit described in Sahinen, to the east of the Copper Canyon shaft, was not located. It may be the working represented by the prospect symbol on the Alta 7.5-min quadrangle. |
