Mining Cabin

I was given permission by the son of the man who used to work the mine at this camp to take pictures on the outside. For this one, I put my camera up to the glass and got the shot through the glass. I lost a little sharpness, but it was still interesting.

A stamp mill that I had no idea existed and can't reveal where it is because of vandals messing things up.
