The time has finally come for the last part in the Union Mine series, at least for now. The Union Mine complex has been quite the adventure, and a challenge to explore. There is still so much to see, but the routes get more and more complicated the deeper you go. There is a limit to how deep we can get, simply due to time constraints. While I do think we'll be back eventually, we're taking a much-needed break from this mine after visiting on three separate occasions. But our group hates unfinished business, so we'll surely be back eventually.
In Part 8, we find another way down to the B-300 Level, and on the other side of the collapse we found in Part 7. We explore most of the remainder of the B-300 and find some interesting things along the way. We also finally find the "B" shaft, which look about as I had expected...
After 17 grueling hours underground, we emerged from the mine at about 2:00am and went straight to bed. Nearly every muscle in my body was sore the next day, and the day after too. Was it worth it? Absolutely.
