Random little used trails. Oh, and H2O updates?

I've been in to King Midas mine, and it is well worth a visit. It's up on a steep slope but there is indeed a good trail. I don't recall the location of the dryfall, so I'm unclear whether or not this would constitute a bypass. We went from there over to Keane - there's a number of mine trails which I found on the satellite images. We hoped to find a trail to reach the mine in the cliff that's on the right side (going up canyon) of Keane, just a bit beyond the tramway head works. We didn't find a way, and ended up descending into the main Keane canyon - it's a garbage dump of old cans down there! But we picked up one of the Keane trails which went up to the tramworks main trail and thus completed a loop.

I still wonder if we missed a connection to get to the mine in the cliff, though.
