| no partners | | I did this trip on 3/3/2013 and it was really fun. We went to martinez mine via box canyon which i highly recommend. I was in my jeep wrangler which was needed for a few of the rocks. I would recommend a good 4x4 (mines stock with 32 inch tires and no lift.) I made it with out an issue. I will say one thing after looking at other peoples pictures im sad to say some of the stuff is now gone or destroyed. the rock cabin looks as if someone dismantled it and took parts of it away. And some of the machinery is gone too. Not sure if someone stole it or what. The bridge that once crossed the river to the mine/mill is collapsed now. They have gated off the main road leading up to the cabins and mine so you can't drive up there (which might be good to keep people honest). But the hike is short and easy.
From when we turned onto Box Canyon Rd to when we reached the mine was about 2.5 hrs give or take but we stopped a lot and got a little turned around.
i suggest go sooner than later its very run down and might not be there in a few years like it is. |
