This blog is a collection of mines and mine related locations I’ve visited. I used to live in the Wood River Valley which was established in the late 1800s due to a mining boom. It’s now a vacation destination with the iconic Sun Valley Resort. This is where I developed my interest in mining history and abandoned mines. I now live in Madison, Wisconsin but still like to visit mines when I can.
