National Park

The Monte Cristo Mine, a gated, locked and controlled mine along Clabber Creek, was observed to be broken into. Trash, water bottles and other items were located both just inside and outside this mine. On the Rush Creek side of the same mountain, drag marks in high grass, from the Morning Star/Ben Carney Mine, down to Rush Creek and the parking lot, indicated large heavy objects were dragged down the mountain to the parking area.
