  Awesome. THis really does look like quite a place. Is it accessible with a two-wheel drive?

  to get to the main town (where most of these photos are from) you don't need 4 wheel drive. However some clearance is helpful. If you do bring a car you may have to walk in the last 1/4 mile and the drive will be slow as the road has some serious bumps that rise up about 6-10 inches in places... not a problem if you have clearance... but w/ a car you'd have to slow constantly,etc.. Also there is one river that you have to cross, it was only about 6 inches deep as of last weekend.. a car could probably do it.

to get above the town and visit some of the mines and get more of a birds eye view of everything you'll definitely need a truck or jeep and 4 wheel drive would be helpful but probably not necesary? w/o 4x4 I was slipping around a bit ...whereas 4x4 made it much easier to get around.


so in long:
a truck or jeep would be best,
but to get to the town a car will do (although it's probably very slow going and some hiking.)
