 Overview
 Description
A two story log building consisting of six rooms. At some point after its initial construction, someone attempted to update it, and covered over the log walls with sheetrock. The sheetrock is rotting and falling off, and you can again see the original wood underneath. Also, an attached bathroom was added at some point, obvious because of its totally different construction materials.

     History
    The Crow Lode was a silver mine which also produced a small amount of gold. It was located in the Bonito District, which also contained the Great Western, the Maude, the All American and the Helen Rae. Unlike some of its companions, the Crow Lode was never much of a success. All theat remains of the Crow complex are some fallen down wooden remmnants, and the Zimmerman bunkhouse, used for housin mine workers. The mine itself caved in decades ago.

     Future Plans
    Nothing. THe area is located in a National Forest, so when this building collapses, thats it.
