Leading up the tunnel one comes to the tunnel watchman's quarters. This person had to open the doors for the trains.
When they built tunnel #3 in 1873 they hit a spring. There is water dripping down plus running along side the trail. Here was a frog enjoying the clear, cool water.
Beautiful rocks on the east side entrance.
This tunnel took three years to build.

Checking out the tunnels is a definite must see if you are in the area. And it is natural air conditioning on a hot summer day.
