With the snow on the path, I presume the other side of the hill still has snow on it?

Yes, the north-facing sides have more snow cover, but it's still patchy! It wasn't a barrier to hiking, although I did give up on driving down one snowy road because I wasn't sure I could get back up even with the 4wd.

An interesting series of old mining ruins, Steve. I see from your keywords they were after tungsten - how long ago?

Thanks, George. Activity shut down in the mid 50s when the Federal gov't yanked the subsidies. I have more in the writeup on one of the adjacent photos: www.ipernity.com/doc/289859/50557530
