Just figured I'd share a few quick photos of a couple locations around Rinconada Mine, a relatively known spot here.


1. From the top of Rinconada Mine, looking out over the main pit and into the mountains beyond.

2. The fuse box of an abandoned homestead along Pozo Rd, just north of the mine.

3. The old office within the house, torn apart by vandals and the elements.

4. The home itself, sitting derelict and in beautiful disrepair.

5. Watching the sunset just beyond the house, sitting on the fence of a giant farm.

I took some shots of the same place a couple of years ago. Yours are much better. I only had my burner cell phone with me, since it was more of a hiking trip with my boys.

Did you see the wall that was papered with old magazine pages?

Also, feel free to PM me. I've got a lot of other good places in the SLO/Kern/Monterey county area that need to be seen before they fall in. I don't have time to get to some of them.

That's awesome! Love seeing a different take on that place, that was the second time I'd been out in that direction and I was fascinated by the area. Would love to hear more about it! I'll message you momentarily.
