Cayuse Claims

Rocky Bar 
Price: $2,500
Available

Overview

This mining claim is situated in the Rocky Bar mining district which is north of Featherville, more specifically part of the Bonaparte Mine vein structure deposit (which runs east & west). This claim is situated about a mile immediately downstream of the Bonaparte Mine. The claim has road access going through and across the claim, and the road dead ends about another mile or two to the east. NF 135 is a rougher road, and while you will see camp trailers back in here, I would recommend a 4WD vehicle for access. There is an existing flat area with fire pit for camping at the NF 135 & NF 132 junction which is adjacent to Auric Havelock (on the south end). There are also multiple flat pads throughout the claim (between the road and the creek) for establishing your own new camping area directly on the claim. Pictures were taken in the fall, when the water is at its lowest, so ample year-round water on the claim for prospecting. I will note that on the northerly end of the claim, it abuts a portion of private property, see photo with the red marked tree with bearing tree marker. Please be respectful while checking out the claim not to park or access this private property to the north. While very old tailing piles and mining disturbance can be found across this claim, just from simple prospecting ample color is found.

Driving Directions from Mountain Home: Take HWY 20 (from I-84 Exit 95), north out of Mountain Home for 31.5 miles. Turn left (north) onto NF 61 (AKA Pine-Featherville Rd, signs for Anderson Ranch) and stay on this road for 28.6 miles. I will note that in Pine at the T looking intersection (at 18 miles), the main road (without stop sign), veers to the right by the Pine diner…so just stay on the main road. After leaving the original older town of Featherville (at approximately 28.7 miles from HWY 20), you will make a left (north) after the bridge (over Feather River) onto the well graded dirt road NF 135. You will continue on this main road for approximately 4.0 miles until reaching the Auric Havelock mining claim. As additional reference, while traveling down NF 135, the claim starts approximately 150’ past the NF 132 junction (with NF 135). Claim signs have been placed along the road to reference the claim position.
