[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1529968, member: 498"] So there is an old mining town near here that is fixed up for the tourist trade. They have a operating steam railroad and an old gold dredge you can tour through. The wife wanted to go up there. The train wasn't running (tourist season is kind of over). But we got the tour of the inside of the dredge. The wife did a little gold panning. Mostly to see if there was some method she needed to know. After we ate I saw a road sign that said Elkhorn Loop. I knew we were on the side of the Elkhorn Mountains and I figured a loop had to come out somewhere. Two hours later after driving through miles of timber, passing one ghost town, a bunch of old mining tailings, a couple of high mountain passes, a snow ski area, and an number of hunter camps (it is archery elk season) we came out where I guessed we might. The old corral here is poles on railroad ties. The poles are getting kind of old and weak. Yesterday's drive we past miles of lodge pole pine so thick you would have to turn sideways to walk through them. I am going to have to talk to the forest service about a pole permit. [/QUOTE]
