Blue Bird Mine 2

The Blue Bird Mine was intermittently active for more than 90 years before closing permanently to mining in the early 1960s. In between active mining periods, the complex -- which sits near the edge of a quiet meadow with expansive views -- became a favorite "whistle stop" for tourists visiting the mountains on the Switzerland Trail Railroad in the early 1900s.
