Monte Cristo Lodge Sign

Mining activity ceased at Monte Cristo around the turn of the century, but the place continued to be maintained as a tourist destination until the 1980's. This was the sign from the lodge that burned to the ground in 1983, but which had been cut off in 1980 by flooding in the area that washed out parts of the road and the Twin Bridges that crossed the river.
