Thanks for posting the newspaper clippings, Chris. I find it interesting that the article mentions the area down by the engine house be laid out as a wood yard for the California Mine. I assume that this was for either wood fuel for boilers, or wood mine props. Since this was next to the Gilpin Tram track, then I assume it was hauled by the tram. It would be interesting to find a photo of wood loads on a tramway train.
