Morgan's Mine is an abandoned mine near Great Waterton. The mine had been closed for many years, and many of the shafts have been flooded, with one leading to a waterfall and ravine. The wooden trestles supporting the track have also become shaky and unsafe. Thomas once went down the mine to retrieve a runaway truck, but went down the wrong track and fell down into one of the flooded shafts. He was trapped inside the mine for nearly a whole day, but eventually managed to get out after he was carried by the current to the waterfall.
