Sunset Mine Trailhead

Beautiful location. The white water rafting there was amazing (Outdoor Adventures).

Good view and drive but the road is washed out after the trail head.

This is a family fun 2 mile logging road hike to an old bridge over Trout Creek. This mine is privately owned, with a few different audits still in the mountain. So, leave the minerals and artifacts as they are! The Audits are hard to find but they are in the hillside. The Outdoor Adventure Center in the Town of Index is a great resource for information on the original mine and camp layout.

Cool to look back in mining history

There are lots of mines in the area the Sunset is the easiest to access and find. There are 2 upper stope mines and 2 lower tunnels which are now both caved in. The old mine road continues to at least one other mine that I've found.

So pristine and beautiful!

Beautiful place to visit to clear the mind and take in nature’s beauty.

Moderate parking, busy trail. Nice wooded trail.

Sunset Mine Trail leads you to the old Sunset Mine near Trout Creek.
