This location is the Pacific Slab Mine which also was part of the town of Last Chance. Notice the aqueduct towards the back of this camp at one time which was used in hydraulic mining which was banned from North America. There is a very dismal feeling as I walk around town I feel as if I am watched here and there is so much to explore its almost overwhelming. This town discovery would occur in 1850 and some residents remained here till about 1982. Today everything is abandoned as nature consumes many of the sites. You are looking at over a century of true mining history when prospectors lived harsh life's in order to strike it rich!
