Very interesting to read about mining history of this region. There is even a mineral called Owiheeite with the chemical formula Ag2 Pb7 (Sb,Bi)8 S20, a silver - lead sulfosalt.
It would be great if you could give more information about the mountains and canyons of this area.

well done.You've done a lot with a little here. I would also like to see a little more information about the canyons. They make some great early season hiking.

Re: well done.Thanks- the canyons are fantastic and, in my opinion, where the real beauty lies in the region. More to come in the future, I'm sure,
