This mine complex was recently taken over and then abandoned by Raiders. Currently, strange other creatures lurk among the roadside fortifications and mine yard. Though there’s no interiors to explore, expect to check a road block (near the electrical pylon) by the large “Monongah Mine” sign. Farther up Route 95 is another Raider blockade. The mine consists of a red water tower, various trailers, and a curved roof but its entrance is blocked by fallen rock. Farther up the hill to the east are three boarded-up houses.
