This appears to be an engine that turns a spool of cable that once lifted an elevator up and down in a mine shaft. The mine shaft is out of the frame and is now filled in with rocks. This is along the Gable Lakes trail behind Mt. Tom near Bishop, California.

I voted 9/10 in VB on this image tonight. Lots of scrap to be used/sold=turned into cheapest booze [for my free 'friends' from scrap yard and the homeless guys around].
Another reason is that, if no metal scrap was there, the landscape would not be soooo beautiful. Or just beautiful .....

What a neat photo - a bygone era captured nicely.

A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken. - James Dent
