There is a place up Mtn Loop Hwy outside Granite Falls about 45 min drive from Seattle called Black Chief Mine. The old ghost town of Monte Cristo is up that way. Two brothers found some gold off the old highway back in the late 1800's. They became wealthy and one got greey because of all the gold they were finding. The story is that he stabbed the other brother in the head with his pick axe an took the money and ran. The other brother was later found by travelers up the old hwy to Monte Cristo. The mine is on Mtn Loop Hwy on the left side about 1/4 of a mile after crossing the red bridge. It goes about 50 yds in through the mountain side. Some people say you can hear them fighting late at night.
