Spent the last day of a two week vacation on Monday exploring the Geneva Creek area here in Colorado.
The final destination is somewhere back there in one of those valleys.
Remains of the old mill judging by the debris
Collapsed mine entry - the steel pipe coming from it had running water.
Final shot before heading back down the trail.
There is an area in the basin called the 'Iron Fens' that you can hike back too which I didn't do on this trip but the area looks interesting: https://aroarhar.com/2017/10/13/a-hidden-gem-geneva-creek-iron-fens/
The nice thing about exploring the area during the week day was that I had it all to myself and after two weeks of hiking and mountain biking amongst other people this was nice.
