Several of the round "buttons" of slag seen here are preserved at our museum, the rest of this slag pile became ballast for the D&RGW in the 1960-70 period. The 2 boxcars are sitting on the D&RG's spur to the North Star mill shown top right across Mineral Creek.

 

And fast forward to 2022--Dear Shane, owner of some of this land is discovering what used to sit here--surprise.
