Visitors seen at the top of the Great Cable Incline segment of the Mount Lowe Railway. Originally the Echo Mountain had several facilities for guests, including the Echo Mountain House, 40-room Echo Chalet, an observatory, car barns, dormitories, repair facilities, and a casino/dance hall. The Echo Mountain House, a 70-room hotel occupied the site above where passengers arrive on the right, but two years before this photograph was taken, a kitchen wildfire destroyed the grand hotel.
