Boxcar on Kendall Mountain


Took the 4wd trail up Kendall Peak today. The mountain is just behind camp and the 4wd trail goes up to over 13,000 ft. At one point there is a mine off the trail that you used to be able to walk into. The floor was always covered with ice that appeared to be a frozen river. Now the entrance is closed but you can see thick columns of ice rising from the floor maybe formed by water coming down from the ceiling. The view from the top of the peak is spectacular. This old boxcar is about half way up, I remember seeing it over thirty years ago and once getting cover in it as a thunder storm went over. The amazing thing was that someone was able to get it up this narrow and steep 4wd trail.
