Re: Animas Forks Restoration work

Glad to hear that they are stabilizing the buildings.I hope they save the Walsh House also known as the Bay Window House. I bet it is the most photographed building there. I made my first visit in 1971 and the building were in fair shape. In 1986 I done a 4-day trip on my Honda Big Red 3-wheeler. I lived in my pickup, camped around Red Mountain. I took a lot of 35mm slides of Animas Forks and about everything from Red Mtn to Silverton. This was in the first part of October and it dropped down below freezing every night. Big Red was a great machine, had my camera bag on the front rack and a cargo bag with supplies on the rear. Great trip!

Keep Shooting,
Sandy
