Ok here's one of the things I have been sitting on, the above, is a picture of a mountain area in Southern California that is known to have at least 3 mines located within them. How do I know ?? Here are the drawing from the geologist who explored them.....

hey gang,
Now see that wasn't too hard....It's actually a area that " I think " you can't go to. It's the Jurupa Cultural Center and it's mainly for the kids, here's a link for some fun things to do.

It's been so long since I posted this I will have to find out where I got the link for the mines.. I will get back as soon as I can...

CONGRATS AUFERRET ( I guess the name REALLY applies )

Thanks PLL. I had no idea just how many golf courses and water tanks were in Riverside Co. I kept looking around the outskirts of the populated areas and was about to give up. I'll watch my mailbox for the black nugget you're gonna send as a prize. ::)

I know exactly where that is. i grew up in rubidoux. and we used to ride dirt bikes in the area below the water tanks. if you drive down the 60fwy west just past the pyrite st offramp you can see tailing piles up on the hill to the left. i always wondered. :icon_scratch: :thumbsup:

If any of you guys want to go out to the desert... Salton Sea / Ocotillo Wells area (or anywhere else)let me know. I have a good offroad vehicle and have a pretty flexible work schedule. I was getting jealous reading this thread, then none of you left the house ! ! !

What kind of 4x4 do you have ?? and can you get the later part of the week off ( meaning Wed-Fri ) ?? Let me know... maybe we could hook up in a couple of weeks... I'd be willing to pay for the gas :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
