Took a nice little walk about in this area with Snickers and Bushwacker.
I had never been to the area, even though it is almost in my back yard.
I knew of the area through work, just based on the resources I had sent
into it for fires and lost hikers, but never myself hiked in.
I was surpresed at the size of the structures that are built in
there. The "Million Dollar Dam", and the Skeleton Dam are huge projects
that were built about a 100 years ago. There certainly is a lot of
history in the Miner Project, and look forward to going back and doing
some more exploring.
It is very easy hiking, all gradual incline. The trails are
shared with ATV and snowmobiles, however we did not see another soul the
entire day. We had a nice hike in, sat around Chasm Lake and had lunch.
Next time we'll scope out the fire tower.
