Made another trip up to Eureka mine while we still can.
There was fresh dusting of snow the other day. Fortunately it all melted.
No need to post many of the same pics but we did find the third tunnel today.
Pics and videos below.

File comment: The tunnel at the back splits into two.
We didn't go down either one because we didn't know how much light we had left on our phones.

Very cool CO. Nothing like that to explore near me. They must have found all the silver to leave it abandoned.
