Description

This trail can be accessed by taking the Fluorite Ridge: Mine Shaft Segment and heading down the mining road below the mine shaft. The initial descent will be very steep and technical. Use caution when descending. The road will become much less technical after you descend past a large wooden structure that was once part of a functional mine in this area. Follow the road down and you can eventually use it to connect back into the Fluorite Ridge: Inner Loop and use it to return to the parking area.

Deep, vertical mineshaft. Be careful because the shaft is not covered or protected.
