Been to the bottom, not a recommended walk. I have maps of the workings I got from usgs.

@@mudhutproductions I didn't go down the vent, went in from level 2 straight down the haulage tunnel to the bottom of the hole. Looks like the vent intersects with several other levels, see where it says main shaft (collar) imgur.com/gallery/xpaQISu

@@tomterry6924 My buddy and I have been dirt biking and jeeping the Creek since the 80's and I've got a strange obsession with the mine and its history lol. Thanks for responding brother! I would love to pick your brains about what you've seen on the inside. Thanks for the link too! I've never seen that particular map before. It ties up all the loose ends I have from the Level 10 Portal to San Carlos Peak! Stay safe! Man, let me edit this to say this map is OUT OF THE PARK! I've been looking for this for years. I could kiss ya on all four cheeks for this!
