In 2011, we took a rough 4WD trip up to the top of the Sweetwater Mountains to see the Montague Mine Cabin. The mines in the area were active in the 1880s, but there isn't much left of them today. The cabin is in better condition but is slowly succumbing to the elements.

The drive to the cabin is challenging, but the view from the cabin is worth it. The mountains and views are breathtaking. The cabin is located on a small shoulder of the mountain just off the road, which continues to the peak. The roof has been replaced at some point in the past, but the cabin still needs some repair. With some work, the cabin could be saved.
