Edna Creek Claims

Crooked River Sold Claims 
Price: $1,250 - $2,250
Sold

Overview

You may have seen other recent postings on Edna Creek, yes, this is a very well-known area for prospecting and mining in the Boise Basin above Idaho City. These claims are positioned below (downstream) of the Edna lode mine (how this drainage got its name) and where the ore was processed at the mill. Some of these have incredible camping areas “on” the claim, or another option is that these claims are short distance from the Edna Creek Campground. These claims are a short 30 minute drive from historic Idaho City (with full services), with a well maintained Forest Service road accessing the length of the mining claim, for easy access. From the rich history of this area (including abutting mining claims the extent of this drainage), and having all of the outdoors appeal this area has to offer, this is indeed a great prospector’s dream site. See our notes under “Crooked River” about the glacial activity and deposits, as this can even be found along the hillsides “on” these claims, giving all kinds of avenues to prospect and explore.
