Description
Photograph of Drennen's Mill on the Colorado River, 1900-1950. The mining operation sits near the water's edge on a rocky embankment. A wooden watertank sits at the top of the embankment. Steam pours from a pipe near the base. A series of pulleys and belts transfer power from a generator (not visible) within the wooden structure. The opposite bank is steep and rocky across the broad river.
