The road less traveled



On the way back from Emmett we decided to follow a historic highway marker to the town of Pearl which is, in theory, a town from the gold mining era. We're not sure if we drove past the town or if the only thing left is the historic highway marker where we turned onto the road. We did enjoy driving the dirt road, saw a lot of cows and a mine entrance.



The best part was the view -- Pearl sits just over 1400 feet higher than Boise, at an elevation of 4,154 feet.

What was that late model target above the mine entrance? and did you approach the entrance for a look in?
