This gold mine lives up to its name. The inclined wooden tramway is the most interesting thing here and makes this old mine worth visiting. Don't be confused; it is not an aerial tramway but a railed inclined tram used to lower ore down from the mine to the ore bin. Below the tramway is a mining camp with a few beds and a workshop with an anvil stump.

I couldn't find any history on this mine, which is a little odd for the area. Judging by the scattered artifacts around the mine camp, I'd guess it was active in the early 1900s.

I visited this mine on a rainy day in March 2023.
