There is a big gold dredge that was last used to mine gold out of the Yankee Fork River in 1952. It is a huge barge in the middle of the mountains! We had a good time walking around it.

Yankee Fork Dredge
We went to the Yankee Fork area last weekend and looked at some ghost towns from the late 1800's. They mined gold in the area. This is a rock chuck we saw. He must not be afraid of ghosts.
