Shakespear Mine Trail
A historic mine site in Kodachrome Basin country
About
Shakespear Mine is a historic mining feature in Garfield County's Kodachrome Basin-area backcountry, in the same general country as Kodachrome Basin State Park's Shakespeare Arch (which collapsed in 2019, though its trail remains open). Documentation on the mine itself as a visitor route is thin - it shows up as a named cultural/historic feature rather than a maintained, signed trail with published mileage or difficulty.
What's confirmed
- A historic mine site in the Kodachrome Basin region of Garfield County
- No established visitor trailhead or maintained tread found in current trail databases
- Distinct from the nearby Shakespeare Arch - Sentinel Trail, a signed loop inside Kodachrome Basin State Park itself
If you're after a documented outing in this area, the Shakespeare Arch - Sentinel Trail inside the state park is the better-established choice; the mine itself is more of a historic point of reference than a built hiking destination.
