Located just off of the Auburn-Enumclaw HW, directly across the river from the Green River Gorge Resort. This town was a mining town during the late 1880's. There was a mining accident where most of the men in the town were killed, then a few months later the town burnt down. At the site you can view the mine shaft, covered by a giant grate, as well as a memorial plack. There is also a cemetary up the hill, along the river from the mine. It used to be open to the public back in the 1990's, and we would visit there as teens. I have heard there are foundations of old buildings, but I haven't seen this myself. I don't know who owns the land now, but it would be a shame for it to be privately owned and closed to the public. Hope this help. Tammi Thanks Tammi
