Location Information
The Keane Wonder Mine Trail follows the line of an aerial tram up a steep grade to a chloride mine. The trail begins at the ruins of a stamp mill and gains 1,500 feet en route to the mine. Do not enter the mine as it is unstable and hazardous. Any historical artifacts should be left on site so that future generations can enjoy them.
