sun-colored amethyst liquor bottles surrounding the feature. <br /> Ec�ture 10-C011ay�cd Wood Frame B Wding <br /> This feature is the collapsed remains of a wood frame structure located on the north edge <br /> of the site (Figure 5). The structure has completely collapsed so getting exact measurements is <br /> somewhat difficult. The structure covers an area approximately 30 ft long and 20 ft wide. <br /> Evidence of the roof decking configuration suggests the structure collapsed in place. The structure <br /> was sided and decked with 1 by 8 inch milled lumber. The roof was a mix of shake shingles <br /> covered with corrugated tin in places. Evidence of 2 by 6 inch framing timbers was also noted <br /> The function of this structure is not known but it can be seen in place to the west of the <br /> boardinghouse in a 1907 photograph of the site area(Figure 4). This wood frame structure ma <br /> have been a mine supervisors residence or some other facility. A pile of large 1 ft thick and y <br /> several feet long structural timbers are located adjacent to the collapsed structure and appear to <br /> fepresent structural members salvaged from other structures at the site(such as the Hanson Mill) <br /> and piled in the area. <br /> Enture 11-Bridge <br /> This feature is a wooden bridge located adjacent to Placer Creek in the northeast corner of <br /> the site(Figure 5). The bridge measures 10 ft wide and 30 ft long and is constructed of 2 by 8 and <br /> 2 by 12 inch lumber. The bridge covered a small drainage that crosses through the mill site and <br /> feeds back into Placer Creek. This small drainage may have been diverted to supply water to the <br /> mill for use in the steam plant. <br /> Foturc 12-Aerial Tram Tower <br /> This structure is an aerial tram tower located adjacent to the boardinghouse(Feature 7)on <br /> the northern edge of the site(Figure 5). The feature measures 25 ft long and 15 wide and is <br /> approximately 20 ft tall. The tower was constructed in a A-frame configuration of 8 by 8 in <br /> lumber held together with large bolts (Figure 10) . A support cable extends from the tower to the <br /> west to the cast side of the boardinghouse. A 25 ft long by 4 ft wide causeway leads from the <br /> tower to the boardinghouse(Feature 7). The tower is part of the Gold Prince Aerial tramway <br /> described earlier in this report and in use from 1906-1917. It is depicted in a 1907 photograph of <br /> the site (Figure 4). <br /> Feature 13-Building Rem in Qa y Office �l <br /> This feature is a leveled and cleared area with a cellar located in the northwestern corner of <br /> the site(Figure 5). The cleared area measures 75 ft long(east-west)by 35 ft wide(north-south). <br /> In the center is 10 ft square excavated area that is 3-4 ft deep and appears to represent a cellar. No <br /> remains of the superstructure are present but there is a distinct scatter of artifacts associated with <br /> the area. Square cut nails were present suggesting parts of this structure may have dated to the <br /> earlier history of the site(1890s and earlier). Artifacts scattered around the feature included <br /> domestic looking refuse such as ceramic tableware fragments, and liquor bottle fragments, but <br /> there are also some very unique artifacts. These unique artifacts include over 100 small 1 inch <br /> diameter plaster buttons or plugs that are concave, and several fragments of earthenware crucibles. <br /> These artifacts appear to define assaying activities, and it is suggested that this feature was the <br /> 20 <br />
