Wheelin' near 29 Palms Mining District

Went wheeling with some buddies near 29 Palms this weekend. Explored some old mining sites. It was great beacause the day had rock crawling, sand dunes, and a good mud pit too boot. Good times.

Damn I wish we had stuff like that here in GA. All we have is that damn red clay!

Nice. Were the mines worth looking at or are they all just sealed off holes in the ground?

I live in SoCal as well. Thanks.

The holes had a few strands of barbed wire around them. If you were brave and had a helmet and harness you could easily have a buddy lower you down on a winch cable. That being said I am a total chicken and would never go inside any of them.
