Good point. I've followed the pipeline route in many sections. Where it goes over the ridge that marks the northern boundary of Wildrose Canyon it gets very steep, but I think there's some sections of pipe left up there. Just to the east is a road leading to a mine and a nice old cabin with a bit of a workshop. You can continue up that drainage and connect with some more modern (?) mining stuff higher up. But go up the west side of the drainage. There's some game trails on the east side but it is long and tedious. If you are a clever navigator you can pop over the ridge and make a fun loop coming back, with a return over the ridge when it is lower, closer to the campground. You won't see anyone out there
But there is some of the original pipeline, if you can sniff it out.
