Monterey Mine

Trail Overview

This is a short but mildly challenging, fun little side-quest off of the Harquahala Peak Trail. The trail begins with an old stone cabin used by the original miners. Expect loose, medium-sized rocks on a narrow road up the side of a ravine. The parking area near the mine does not have enough room for more than 1 or 2 vehicles. There is an open mine shaft in the ground behind a fence that is monitored via a trail cam.
