April Fools Mine

Vulture Mining District

Located near Vulture Peak in Maricopa County is this small underground mine on BLM public land. The mine appeared mainly abandoned from a visit in 2021. Although, the equipment and workings show that work occurred about a decade ago.

Mine workings include an incline shaft and diggings spread about. A headframe, generator, blower fan, and winch remain on site. The site is accessed from a series of 4WD roads off Vulture Mine RD
