Denver Mining Club Field Trip to Idaho Springs and Central City, Colo. On Monday, July 26, 2021, we’ll meet at 10 a.m. at the Edgar Mine, near the west end of Idaho Springs, for a mine tour. Then we’ll travel up the Virginia Canyon “Oh, My God Road” to the Comstock Mine, for a talk on history and plans for that operation. Then we’ll drive over to the Gilpin County History Museum (Cost: $5), Central City, and finish our tour at nearby Dostal Alley in Central City for homemade pizza and a microbrew. Bring snacks and/or a picnic lunch and join us to visit one or all of these mining sites.
