I have edited the first post to reflect the addition of the photo I couldn't find when composing said post.  This photo (about 1905: extant Mayflower Mine buildings near the Stanley Powerhouse and the Alpine/Bertha near the I.S. Water Tank) just confirms the wagon road location on the North bank of Clear Cr. up past the Maude and that the new 6&40 highway was built over the C&S grade from the Big5 Tunnel area to nearly as far as the Stanley Powerhouse.  The "orebin in the distance" refered to was actually on the old wagon road not that of the C&S grade.  Definitely Post C&S.

Thanks Ken for your postcard inclusion.  That also shows the M Monroe trestle over 6&40 had been reduced by one span at the end and the odd looking Orebin removed.   They seemed to have gone to some trouble with little to show for it.
