The tailing pile is massive, but amongst the dirt that's piled into a steep hill there are old wheel barrels and steel helmets used by the old miners. In the same pile of dirt you can see remnants of torn clothing and broken tools that once belonged to the old miners. The dirt pile is eroded away at the top from the wind blowing it away over the years.

I sniff, and bark. Then I look at master to see if he wants me to go after the smell. Usually the smell leads to a new exciting creature. I don't like cats.
Woof Woof! Master! Look at this stick I found!! So cool right?! It looks dirty! Put it in the wheel barrel, Dog. You should be hunting not playing with sticks.  Im sorry master! I can smell a squirrel from here! Should I go after it?! Yes, but do not go near the dirt pile it is filthy! Bring the squirrel to me, dog.  I tried to get the squirrel but it was just too fast. What else can i do for you? Go find me a pig! Maybe you can actually catch it.  Okay master! Ill go looking......... I couldn't find any but I found this cool stick its sooooo cool! Do you think its cool!? You silly dog. You are not very good at hunting. Go put that dirty stick in the wheel barrel.  Okay. fourty-fifth stick in the wheel barrel! You almost done mining?! I am done for the day. I was paid fairly for an honest day work. Now, do your job and bring back some dinner. Oh yeah my job.. right. Okay here I go... Doing... my job! Um master what was my job again? Apparently, it is fetching dirty sticks. Clearly, it is not hunting.
