Topaz, the return trip.

A lunch stop by the railroad tracks to cheer him up.  He was disappointed that we didn't make it to Topaz Mountain to look for rocks.

Looking north on the Lyndyl sub.

Sitting on the tailgate while he at his sandwich.  It was SO windy!

Southern view.  No trains were spotted.  :(

He wanted to stop in the town of Eureka on the way home to check out some mining remnants.  This is the foundation where the electric motors and gear case were that ran the hoist to the mine.

Hoist frame built in 1890.  Shaft is 3,000 feet deep!
