| Looking toward the East to the mine area from the southern slope above Frytown and Hogback Hill. |
| This is a shot taken from the creekbed at the tip of Hogback Hill. Over the far rise is Jimtown. |
| This one is from the creekbed at the Northwestern tip of Hogback Hill in the valley beyond Tesla. |
| On the upper part of Hogback Hill, looking toward it's tip. I believe it is sage brush growing on the West side. |
 |
 |
| This is the "pretty little valley" beyond Tesla on the other side of Hogback Hill. |
| Also the "Pretty little valley" beyond Tesla, only this is earlier in the springtime or late winter. |
 |
 |
| This one is the same as the last only it is a vertical shot so I could get more sky in the picture. |
| This sinkhole is probably due to some section of the old mine collapsing. It is above Treadwell row if memory serves. |
 |
 |
| This is the hillside where the main tunnel used to be. It is all collapsed now but a small coal seam shows and there are many interesting mineral specimens lying about the area. |
| And this is where tunnel number 3 used to be. It too is collapsed. I am not sure if this shack is recent or a remnant of the town. |
 |
 |
| This is a view of the old sand bunker and the existing mine and chute above it. |
| And then there is me, standing in front of the old mine. I love to visit the bats and cave rats inside. |
 |
| I hope you are enjoying the album so far. Please remember to e-mail me if you have any information to better describe any of the pictures you see or if you find any errors on the pages. I would really appreciate it. The next page will focus on some of the local plantlife which I have photographed while visiting this beautiful part of Corral Hollow Canyon. |
