My boyfriend, Eric, and I went on a small hike at Coal Mine Ridge. The area is shady with lots of overgrown, aging trees and plants.
Coal Mine Ridge got its name from a lowgrade coal mine that opened on the ridge in 1855. A massive landslide in 1890 buried the mine, which never did produce any high quality coal.
