Mammoth Mining Company

Nearby, the ruins of the Mammoth Mining Company are still there for exploring. We went this afternoon with Zach's aunt Jeannie and Richard. Here we are at the Lower Adit.






There were lots of old hunks of metal.




And amazing equipment.















Campsite

The campsite is lovely. There's a Creek that the girls are enjoying doing their feet into (this afternoon, cousin Ellington joined them in the Creek). Molly is collecting pine sap on sticks.




Relocation


We relocated the tent to a better location, and here it is, all set up!




Tent Set Up

Our lovely green tent finally gave up the ghost this spring, after about 15 years of excellent service. This is our maiden voyage in the new tent. The girls set it up almost entirely on their own. (just a little coaching from me)
