These are various photos from our trips over the years to the Columbia #2 mine in the Mojave Desert. It is part of the War Eagle complex of mines and is well-traveled.

Much of the remaining mining equipment has been stolen since my photos were taken. A May 25th, 2012, article in The Pahrump Valley Times entitled “Stealing History” reported on it. My photos below are old. 

The mine is private property, but private tours are available. To schedule a tour, contact Ross at tecopamines@gmail.com and tell him Guy sent you.
