The old stage coach wagon route begin in Colfax then steeply climbed all the way to the top of the Foresthill Divide where Iowa Hill is located. At the time ranchers, miners and stage coaches had to cross this bridge which was replaced in 1928 that you see in the clips. Ill start off leaving Iowa Hill taking all of you on a thrilling ride along the cliffs of this old stagecoach route. Their are no guard rails here just cliffs leading to a very gloomy doom below where the American River flows. The road is very narrow it has a fair share of curves but takes you down to the bottom of the canyon. Today really all that is left of Mineral Bar is the old bridge which spans the river but at one time hydraulic and placer gold mining was done here. Mining along the river was dangerous allot of banks would collapse killing miners all the time who are now buried up at Iowa Hill. The road is paved heading down to Mineral Bar but its heavily eroded from hydraulic mining and the elements. Sort of makes you wonder what early pioneers were thinking when they founded a town up here or a mining camp like Mineral Bar.
