Lundy Canyon is a gorgeous site just northwest of Mono Lake. The canyon itself has about 10 separate mines through out the canyon, all of which are fantastic exploring. Our favorite is the May Lundy Mine.
The May Lundy mine is accessed via an old jeep trail. While Cat and I hiked the 3 1/2 miles to the mill site the "jeeper" in Cat was navigating the trail. She only deemed one spot "sketchy" the rest she thought would be a great trail! However, this site is accessed strictly by foot, the site of the May Lundy is within wilderness boundaries.


The photos above were taken at the May Lundy mine haulage tunnel entrance. The actual mine is high above the site via a difficult and sometimes very faint trail. You can see those photos at the bottom of this page.
At some point there was a fire here which left all the equipment but burned down the mill itself. We counted four stamp batteries with 5 rock crushers inside each, four ore cars, and other assorted cool stuff! Cat was thrilled!

























We found one foundation of a house and then this fallen down cabin. Looks like this was a combination of sleeping quarters and ore processing site.








These photos were taken at the Upper May Lundy area.










At the site of the upper May Lundy mine we found a bunkhouse, a cookhouse,and the remains of several stoves.
