Starbuck's Exploring - "Wooden Slats" Mine and Mill

We met up with Dan and made a fairly long drive to explore a forgotten corner of Nevada’s mining history. We weren’t sure if we would find anything , as is often the case. We ended up driving over 100 miles (one way) of dirt roads. And after battling steep, rough roads and threatening weather, we made it to an old mill ruin. The mill was at least the second on the site; the first being built in the 1880s and this one in 1921. It looks like it was a grand operation, but in typical boom and bust fashion it was only worked for a few years. It has an interesting layout none-the-less and it worked gold, silver, lead and copper ores from the local mine. The mine has a few entrances, which we didn’t have time to check out. Guess we will have to do a return trip.
