The Hope Mine is one of
the oldest mines in the state, going back to before the
revolutionary way. The mine appearance is incredible, the mine shaft is eerie
and appears like an evil
mouth gaping open from the earth. The shaft in the pictures is very large, so
large in fact a truck could
just about fit down that hole. No records exist of this mine.
The journey to the mine was done in September, the journey should not be done
alone, you have
to go over some wetlands, and bear country. I saw bear footprints all over the
place.
There is a story by Ed Lenik, a respected historian about his trip to this
mine shaft. He apparently
saw the ghost of a former miner wallowing in the shaft. He also heard groans.
During my trip i did a very short video clip of the mine, and then I was out,
I felt very uncomfortable,
If you listen to my video clip you will hear what appear to be sounds of
hammering iron and eerie booms.
Check it out, skeptic or not, can you hear what sounds like hammering and the workings in
the mine? it defies explanation, as the area itself
is ex remote.
