Really should have combined the three hikes in this area into one.
Nagging cough has been kicking my butt.
Last time I was looking at the map I saw there was a prospect near the cliffs I went to last time.
I should have spent more time on this trip but I was just too tired.

The prospect is easily seen from Google Satellite.
It really hidden well from any other place though.
I ended overshooting and ended above the gash in the cliffside.

Checked out the area above and then skirted around a cliff down to a wide spot.
On a whim i checked out the wash below it and found a horizontal mine.
There was a bolt and some wires in the ceiling.

Fell pretty hard on the way down and banged my knee.
Falling down hill is worse than falling up hill.
I managed to fall right after the turn around point.
Hurt so bad it made me nauseous.
I'm done with this area.

2:02 - Left the truck
2:10 - Bottom Of canyon
2:15 - left Gasline Road and headed UP to the West
2:42 - above the prospect
2:46 - found mine opening below prospect
3:17 - Headed back
3:45 - Back on Gasline Road
4:09 - Headed up out of the canyon to the truck
4:22 - Truck!
