February 14-15, 2021 Shoshone, Calif

 60 degrees today and sunny. Lots of wind till late afternoon.



We had our first Primrose Posse Patio party tonight. John, Karin, Robbie, Susan and Judy. Lily came along too. What a cutie. 


\
Sunset. We went on a hike to day with the THC- Tecopa Hiking Club. It was unexplored territory for the beginning. We started by hiking up to this ridge. Jim, Judy, John Mike, Toni and Roger behind her.


 
Toni and Roger. We were following a sort of trail. 



The hillside was cris-crossed with trails This one was very promising. The mountain was honey combed with mining tunnels. 



At this point we started hiking down the steep slope. The views were spectacular. You can see the valley below with Resting Springs, Shoshone and Tecopa.




 Approaching another mine. We were not sure what this yellow ore is. 




Coming down a ridge to another mine. Past a huge rock wall. From this point down we were at the Gunsight Mine that has wide trail. 



John in the mouth of one of the shafts. The ore bin at the bottom of the Gunsight Mine. 



Another rock wall at the Gunsight Mine. Sunset tonight.
