Over the Memorial Day weekend we visited the Hector Hills location. Mitchell&#8217;s map is fine although the site is expansive and takes more time than we had available.
The road heading south from 66 that eventually connects to the Hector Mine is a well maintained county road fully passable by standard passenger cars. For those without [...]]]></description>

We visited site B of the Lavic entry on Monday, May 30.
Mitchell&#8217;s map is fine although note that the rail road crossing no longer exists. The road is well maintained and passable by standard passenger vehicles.
Due to some mechanical issues with my car, we only went part of the way down Lavic road and stayed [...]]]></description>
