Silverton




Yesterday, we drove over to Silverton to do some exploring. First, we decided to take a tour of a mine. We went 1200' feet down a shaft, then walked around listening to an ole' guy who actually worked the mine. This was extremely interesting, but I sure wouldn't want to be down there with a flashlight. Then went into the town, checked out the stores...then went Jeep exploring. Several roads were still closed with over 5' of snow, others had streams flowing through them from the melting snow.
But we still found many good trails and took our snack lunch and ate by a stream.
Beautiful day and such great fun!
