Just at the foot of Yarnell Hill is a gravel road that takes you to the Octave Mine. There was once a town called Octave here but now there isn't much left of the old town.
There are several gold mines in this area and some are still being worked.
The Octave Mine was recently featured on the television show
"Ghost Mine". It seems the mine owner would like to get the crew that is working the mine in Baker, Oregon to come and work the Octave in the winter months.
