Linda: That is in Montrose county, not Lake County. I didn't know there was another RAM. Are you a descendent of Texas Jack? The R.A.M. in Leadville is just off of 5th Street. I believe the EPA wants to re mediate it soon. It will be gone. FYI. The mine is on such a steep slope that the miners slid down the tailings on their shovels, thus the name Raggedy Ass Mine.
