Description
Photograph of a view of the Champion Mines in Nevada City, ca.1930. A thin set of mining tracks can be seen on the bottom at center with a large, oddly-shaped structure to the left, built against a small, dirt hill. A smaller structure stands on top of a dirt hill on the right while another large structure with a sloping roof stands amongst trees and bushes behind the first structure. At center, behind the tracks, a long structure sits at the foot of a large, tree-covered hill while several other smaller structures are scattered amongst the trees on the hillside in the background.
