When you are up in the tower on Belvedere, that large pile of dirt to the southeast, is the talus field from a closed asbestos mine!! It is now an EPA superfund site. You can drive by it. The mine goes over a 1000 feet down. From what I’ve been told, it’ll most likely be there in a 100 years. The bought most of the nearby homes as well. It’s interesting to drive by.
Love me a fire tower. Day 21 next. Wow! What a trek.
Can’t beat those views!
Great video, I met you today on the lower part of the AT heading up to Old Spec.
Thanks man! Nice meeting you!

I didn’t know about it until I saw it from the tower! Then I looked it up and got some of the info on it
