Montreal Mine was an iron mine near Ironwood, MI and Hurley, WI. The site consists of many old buildings, shafts and other artifacts. The site is well signed and preserved.

The Nip and Tuck Creek Placer is located just outside Lower Stanley. You can walk to it from in town. There is some evidence of excavation on the eastern side of the road but there aren't really any visible artifacts. We did see some elk grazing on the ridge.

The Eureka Mine is located in Bullion Gulch outside of Hailey. The mine has many collapsed structures and one standing building. The mine also has an exposed mine shaft. I dropped a rock into the shaft and never heard it hit the bottom. Use extreme caution when visiting this mine. There are large tailing piles on either side of the road. There are lot's of artifacts scattered around the area.
