Trail Overview
A longer walk around Ore Mine Hill consisting of multiple joining segments challenging to connect in the right sequence. Will have to return as did not successfully navigate to get a correct track.
How To Get There
Park at Spoone Recreation Area. Note there are bathrooms nearby. Alternatively, the map shows a 0.20 mile Campground Connector Trail from that facility.
Route Description
Starting at parking lot versus campground, below is a clockwise description using the park map, which differs from official total length. Trailhead sign at Spoone Rec. Area parking lot says 1.3 miles which happens to be Ore Mine Trail distance so an error?
Mileage | Feature | Elevation |
---|---|---|
0.00 | Spoone Rec Area parking lot | 1120 |
0.01 | Split with Seven Sinkholes Trail, so head right. | 1180 |
0.10 | Junction with Seven Sinkholes Trail | |
0.15 | Turn right for trail just above horse connector path | 1170 |
0.40 | Junction with horse connector path | 1150 |
0.70 | Head uphill | 1130 |
1.25 | Junction with Ore Mine Trail | |
1.65 | Spur to Campground | |
2.10 | Back to parking lot |
Typical Conditions
A forest walk with half dozen opportunities to take a wrong turn. No sign of recent trail maintenance with a few blowdowns and encroaching growth.
Miscellaneous Information
Park brochure says the trail follows portions of "goat paths" or crude roads followed by settlers in early 1900's. Passes by stone piles of former foundations.
