Mojave Desert Exploration: Bonanza Gulch...

www.elpasomountains.blogspot.com

This past weekend (June 7-8, 2014), I and a friend with another vehicle ventured back into the El Paso', and we decided to take one of the trails that lead into the north west section of Bonanza Gulch.  Here, we found these crumbling ruins.

Mining began here during the late 1800's and continued through the early 1930's. I believe that this building dates to the latter period, as modern concrete seems to be holding the stone walls together.
