Most Recent added/changed image is on top.
Being the image source is of print type, the quality is not always the best, but it is what it is, I have worked with it as best as I could. This view is from a northeast slope of Bull Hill, northeast of the town of Altman, looking at the Buena Vista Mine with Pike's Peak Range in the background. Being the source is published in May 1895 this pen drawing is from sometime before that, but I do not know when. I did procure the colored version of this image as I think it is nicer. Source is gray-toned, or in common speech black & white. Used an online service and tweaked and worked with image to get what looks best to my eyes for the moment.

This is a wonderful scene by Mr. Harlan and colored by him or someone working for him. I can get better coloring in our modern day on sharp good photographs, using AI-technology, but this is a original photograph, from around 1899 capturing the feel on northeastern slope of Bull Hill or Bull Cliff, not sure how to define what this area should be named as. In the foreground is the mainline of the 3-foot Golden Circle circling the hillside going towards its end-loop at Vista Grande which is sort of straight ahead through that hill in background left-hand side. The mine in the foreground is the Lee Shaft of the Isabella company, the main shaft for time being of this photo, with a railroad spur down to both its power-house and more important, down to the Ore-House and working towards but not yet have reached the Buena Vista Mine which is seen about 1/3 in from right-hand side and same from top side.
