Abandoned Gold Rush Ruins. Breadcrumbs of a Time Gone By.
Показать описание
Atlin has shown its colours as a truly magnificent location for adventure. The area has been home to the first nation people for generations, but the city its self came to be during the Klondike Gold Rush. Like many gold rush towns, Atlin has suffered a number of fires, booms and busts, resource depletion, and of course the aggressive weathers of the north, leaving much of it abandoned today and much of it gone completely.
What is left from the old times, that hasn't already been restored or preserved, is at this point too far gone to salvage. Luckily there is still much to see if you spend some time exploring around in the woods. The dredge is a particularly interesting piece of history, especially because of its location. Since dredges need a body of water to float in and to process materials, they are typically in a location with easy access to water. This dredge is way up in the hills, far from water and far from any easy access. In fact, the only way to get it to where it is now, was to dig a trench, divert water and float the whole thing in. It was built in Marion Ohio, by the Fairbanks Shovel Co, and operated on 1904 and 1905, but having never found success, was shut down and has been abandoned on location ever since. I have not seen a dredge of this kind before, with the single bucket, and I can imagine it must have been much slower and the bucket chain style.
The Power House was another really neat place to visit, and I do believe that these locations may be related. The pipeline running down from the dredge, runs directly towards the power house from the dam, and is of the same diameter stave pipe. I do believe that the pipeline ran to the power house and ran the turbines, but that is not something I can confirm without making the hike between the two. Like most abandoned power plants, all of the copper has been stripped, but remarkably the rest of the building is still in great condition given its age.
Both of these locations were spur of the moment, and it just makes me think of how many more are hidden out in the woods that aren't as easy to find. Certainly Atlin will be seeing me again in the future for some more exploring.
