Still sounds safer than mountain biking up in the hills and dropping into some random mine shaft that wasn't posted or fenced off.

This is why I don’t ride the elevator at a sketchy parking garage

I remember taking this tour like 15 years ago. Even back then I felt like we were gambling but when in Cripple Creek.

It is a working mine however they have old shafts they do tours in.
