This cropped view from a postcard of not the best quality shows the surface structures of the Alpha and Omega Mine in a more modern time then what I did mark the view on left-hand side as. I think there is a road and not a railroad in the source image, but in order to help understanding the location I decided to mark in in red the location of something that still is there as in the District, the Victor road from Cripple Creek, here marked as the F. & C.C. Roadbed. Looking at Google Maps from around 2015 there is only ruins left, and a dump which resembles this view.Alpha and Omage Mine; Cropped From #11-5; Scene Near Cripple Creek, Colorado
