Black Butte 07/01/13



Nice view of the base area from about mid way up Gold Hill.



I am taking Sliver Creek Trail, to Pacific Crest Trail.




I saw an abandoned mine, I think there are a few in these mountains alone.




Here's the view from inside, I probably went about 500 into it but I had more pressing business outside.   It would be fun to go back and check the mine out further.




I found a large bone at a trail junction.  I decided to take the Pacific Crest Trail south.




I then climbed on top what I think the locals call Black Butte.  It is on the same ridge as Three Way Peak.  You can see Threeway and Mount Rainier in this photo.
