Reward Mine, Inyo mountains California. Drive through service available!

Getting there is fairly easy on an old un-maintained road that goes from beat up pavement to beat up gravel, the last 1/4 mile to the entrance is 4x4 territory, with a couple of 4-low sections. A stock Jeep could make it up but might take some underside damage on a few rocky areas you have to cross.

Eastern Sierras with Mount Whitney in the background of this next pic.

Once you get past the short rough area you get to the entrance of the mine.

A quick clearance check and its down into the hole, if your not too scared...

At the bottom of this decline there's a 90 degree left turn, pure blackness beyond that as you continue deeper into the middle of this mountain. All pictures following were taken with headlights, flashlights, or cell phone camera flash. Turn everything out and the complete lack of any natural light is a little bit unnerving.

Old explosive store room, as with everything California vandals have been here as well.

After several declines, a couple of inclines and many turns, end of the road, at least for driving. We continued on foot for about another 1000' to where the main tunnel ends.

Coming back, whats that in the dark ahead..

Why it's pure freaking gold!

Here's an spot in the roof of the shaft where someone was chasing a quartz vein.

Luckily there are a few spots to turn around where there used to be large shafts, that have been long ago intentionally collapsed because they are dangerous. Got turned around (after realizing how pitiful the JL's backup lights are and back up lighting aftermarket mods are now higher on the list) and back into the light. You can drive around 1/2 mile underground, seems like alot further when you are doing it, and there are a couple of walking size only tunnels as well. Everything dead ends at some point and there is only one main tunnel so it's kind of impossible to get lost in there. Amazing trip. After exiting we explored some other mining ruins in the area and let little desert dog chase some lizards.

"I see you you little bastard!" (lizards,he never catches them)

Thanks for sharing - I doubt I’d do it

Last weekend, I took my Jeep downtown with some others to get pictures around the city. I'll let you guess which "downtown". The black Jeep is a photographer and did the "real pictures", he is processing them now, maybe I will post a few after he sends them out. The edited picture had some post processing done by me in case you are unsure.

We have a number of MI folks on the forum...I like!
