Nope, this is NOT the one in downtown Breckenridge. This one is a little east of town. Easy gravel road for all 2 wheelers. Close to the old Ghost town of Lincoln. Pretty setting. Constructed in 1908 it operated until 1922 when it had an accident and started to sink. It was capable of dredging 2,000 yards of gravel a day.
