Abandoned Mine Buildings at the Cougar-Independence Mill Site

 Driving along the forest road we spied this old mine building off to the side of the road.

 

 This looks like it might have been an old stamp.

 

 Traces of an old building.

 

 I crossed a creek and walked over some sketchy fallen building parts to get these photos.

 

 

It appears that the mine was across the road and up the mountain a bit.  These cables probably had carts that brought the ore down.
