Burro Schmidt Tunnelclick the photo to enter the gallery William "Burro" Schmidt spent 38 years digging through Copper Mountain in the El Paso range. Folks would ask why he was doing it, he would reply, "A shortcut". After completing the nearly one half mile long tunnel, he lost interest in mining and simply walked away. A monument to determination and perserverance. Bickel CampLast Chance CanyonLast Chance SpringCudahy CampOld Dutch Cleanser MineHolly MineGarlock FaultRed Rock Canyon |
