Leaving town, visiting a mine on the way out, we drove up, up and up. At one point, the sign suggested that this road was not recommended for non-4 wheel drive vehicles ... as Britt pointed out, "not recommneded" does not mean: closed to regular cars, and on we drove - slowly. Our Toyota made it - no problem, and we arrived in our "ghost town", at about 11000' elevation (3300m).
