Muertos Ore Wharf Ruins

23° 59.5′ N · 109° 49.6′ W · approximate

Stone remains of the 1920s wharf and warehouse where El Triunfo silver ore was loaded onto barges bound for Mazatlán - the origin of the bay's name.

Practical

Coordinate is approximate: placed on the north shoreline of the Muertos cove, where The Log (2022) says the ruins are visible. Land by dinghy on the beach. The 'muertos' were six train axles buried as dead-man anchors for three ore barges.
