Maneotis, Spring 2008: The Berghof Adit extends some 325 feet into the foot of the mountain. Two small drifts can be found off the main tunnel. Water seepage is present from entrance to end. Small pyrite octahedra can be found in the sulfide zoning throughout the tunnel, along with crystalline quartz. I have not detected metal or test panned any material from this location. Minimal crystallization can be found in this location.
