All mine shafts located on NC Forest Service managed lands are now off limits. No one is allowed to enter these mines due to the "White Nose Bat Syndrome" which has affected millions of bats in the eastern United States. All mine shafts are off limits until further notice.

NOTE: Entering ANY abandoned mine tunnel or shaft is extremely unsafe and dangerous. You should never enter a mine for ANY reason!
