[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1701864, member: 498"] There was a ditch a little west of here that is 134 miles long. All dug by hand. It was built in the 1860's and 70's. All of the flumes over draws and canyon were made with no nails or bolts. They were drilled and dowels. Any rock which needed to be blasted was done with black powder. They were getting water to an area where there was good gold but no water to washing it out of the dirt. [/QUOTE]
