new idia mine area

so me and member chris went out yesturday to check this mine out .. well the mine is not worth visiting in my opinion, but if you like to just cruise the mountain roads then its all good . the mines all littered and vandalized , looks really ugly ..

we left my house at 8:30 and got back at 7:30 , visited hollister on our way back from the mine area. over all was good ,got out of the house and just drove around ..
ill post some pics later havent uploaded them .

I like in your first video, right at the start the sound of crickets. It's funny how they always make it sound like piece and quite to me.
And of course your second video, I was sensing a trend happening, toy pulling out chevy, toy pulling out jeep (well that's just a gimme)... Nice looking trip.

NIce pictures and awesome scenery RMA. Quick question, was Hollister really muddy? Planning to go out there in about two weeks or so.

New Idria Mine.

Sorry I was busy the last few days. I finally got the videos up. I didn't edit them together or anything their just short little snippets. I haven't dumped my camera yet but I don't think I took too many photos.

I also have to agree on the mine. It was so so. Might have been cool to check it out but the guy I hear is a dick and was shooting at us so we decided to just keep on going.

Those noodles are delicious and for a 6 pack it's $1.00. I don't care how nutritious they are, 6 for $1.00 and tasty is a beautiful deal to me.
