In our current print issue we ran a piece on Park City’s upcoming silver mine preservation project. We’re happy to report after just a month of work, the California-Comstock mine looks almost unrecognizable. Clark Martinez and his crew from The Xcavation Company have been hard at work on the restoration of this historic silver mine. Despite the surprise of finding an old mill crusher and the floor completely collapsed in the basement, everything has been going well. Construction is on break for the moment, but will be finished up sometime in August.  Â
