The old tunnel
This old rail tunnel was on a line closed many years ago. The tracks have been removed, and huge trees now grow along the old track bed. Many cuttings remain, as does an old tunnel.
One of the old railway cuttings. The going is easy here, the track is well marked.
Red rocks, old copper deposits stain the granite

Looking down the tunnel
The old sleepers left grooves in the tunnel floor
