Description
Located in the historic town of Ingot, where in 1862 the old timers mined for silver, copper, and zinc. This property is what is known as the Afterthought Smelter where they melted the rock to extract the precious metals. Mineral rights say you get from 0 to 100 feet down. This extremely unique property includes approximately 590 feet of awesome year round Cow Creek which does contain fish. This property also has land on the west side of the highway where it adjoins 292 acres of BLM land, Bureau of Land Management. This property and some others in this area are also getting government funding for old mine/mineral remanence cleanup from the EPA in the form of a Super Fund. (No cost to owner according to the EPA news article) The elevation ranges from 1100 to 1550 feet, below the snow. Come fish, recreate, or possibly build on this truly unique property. My cell does work on some parts of the property.
