The Keystone (called Lotus Mine on USGS topo) mine had amenities including a swimming pool for the workers. I believe this building was the dining area.
Goler Canyon, Inyo County, California. In the Panamint Mountains.
Particularly dense ice, as seen by the turquoise color. Water seeps from the sheer vertical cliffs of Keystone Canyon.
Nye County, Nevada. A little north of Tybo in the Hot Creek Range.
I believe that this was the headquarters of a mine. My theory is that the strong room (the door seen through the window) was built to safeguard the silver dug up. Of course it may also just be a room without windows and a small low door...
We intercepted an NS 561 putting its train together at Shelocta, and had an enjoyable chase of the NS 7527-NS 1218 (The other 1218!) meandering south to the connection with the Conemaugh Line. Here the train is near Clarksburg, PA at station sign FORRESTER.
Arthur Pack Regional Park, Tucson, AZ.
Gila Woodpecker is considered a keystone species in its ecosystem. This is primarily because it creates vital cavities in saguaro cacti that are then used by many other species for nesting and shelter. These cavities are essential for the survival of various birds and mammals, making the Gila woodpecker a crucial component of the ecosystem's structure and health.
Just a little wave on a Oklahoma lake..Keystone...this was a small wave from a boat, not really significant but 10 million of these small waves can change the face of a shoreline.....think about it...no matter how small nothing should be counted insignificant.
A grizzly bear, neck deep in a BC salmon river, holds the head of a salmon carcass in its long claws and pulls off the skin with its teeth as it glances over at the camera. Salmon is a keystone species in the Pacific Northwest, supporting more than 130 other species with nutrients as they die at the end of their life cycle.

WM SD40 #7549 and B&O GP9 #5947 shove an eastbound coal train at Keystone Pa in July 1976. The track in the background is 7549's former home turf; the WM's Conneillsville Extension, closed as a through-route about 14 months prior.
The section between the nearby B&O connection to just east of the Salisbury Viaduct was kept in to serve the Blue Lick load out until about 1990. Walter Schopp photo, JL Sessa collection.

Canadian Pacific's train 580, muscles out of the Reeseville Marsh basin at Richwood, with a leader that looks just as at home in the cheese state as it does in the keystone state.
The Nevada Northern Railway museum's wreck train is seen on the ore line in this view looking east (railroad north) off the NV Route 44A overpass. This is railroad MP 146 (measured from the one time Southern Pacific interchange at Cobre) and the switch stand marks the location of turnout leading to the snow covered siding here at a place known as Keystone on the railroad. Beyond the train in the sagebrush is the wye track and behind me the track reaches almost three more miles looping around the small community of Ruth up to the facilities of Robinson Nevada Mining which still works the giant open pit, but alas has not reopened the railroad for freight service after the last freight operator, BHP Nevada, folded in 1999.
Alco RS-3 #109 leads the vintage train. Built in November 1950 for Kenecott Nevada Mines division she hauled ore trains on these very rails for nearly her first 30 years. Trailing is 100 ton steam wrecking crane A dating from 1907, the same year the ore line was constructed.
