Exploring the mine

In between showers some of our cycling group toured the town and the mine site; oh what fun getting along the muddy track into the open cut! We marvelled at the beauty of the rockwall; such rich and vibrant colours. We also thought about the men and boys who would have chipped away in this quarry over a hundred years ago to extract the copper.

Looks like a really interesting adventure! Yes I am with you on the rock. It's really something.
