A view at the early shaft house of the Pike's Peak mine, it is a long narrow wood structure with a small cupola at one end and a smoke stack and external water tank at the other end. Also, a Shed is poking out towards the photographer at the left-side of this view, easy seen on the 1896 Sanborn Fire Insurance map of this mine. View is looking north. On the DPL photo, there is more view to the left, and in front of this structure, I would advise to check that view out if interested in this mine here.Pike's Peak Mine, Bull Hill

      General notes:
      Map is mostly boring. Of course the Discovery Shaft is shown, with a Excavation marked out just along the side of it, and a little bit further north there are marked two more Shafts, the closest one being marked with a Shaft House.
      graphic for visual presentation of text Per info in the 1900 Manual, there are 2 shafts on the Pike's Peak claim, one on the east and one on the west end - both being having a 25 H.P. plant. This shaft is in the 1900 Manual listed to be 100 feet. – Not seeing those in this map as all three marked is more or less near center of the claim.
