Fee dig · Fee
A small reservation-only operation outside Oden that caps each day at twelve diggers, which keeps the ground from being picked over. Now under new ownership, it provides bottled water, gloves, safety glasses, a well-maintained portable restroom and picnic tables; you bring tools and snacks. Confirm your booking and your price before you leave pavement, because there is no signal at the mine.
