              Evans elevator system at the Gold Pan Mining Company operations south of Breckenridge, Colorado. Circa early 1900s. Water diverted from the Blue River was forced under tremendous pressure down one pipe into the pit. A second pipe hydraulically lifted rocks, dirt, water and potential gold to the elevated trestle and sluice. Tailings were moved by conveyor belt into an ore trolley; the trolley hauled the rocks up the elevated wooden trestle and dumped them over the edge, away from the pit. In the background are the Gold Pan Shops, including the pipe making shop and dipping tank; machine, blacksmith and carpenter shop; and pipe flanging and shearing shop. Also, the Gold Pan office building with dormer windows. Barney Ford Hill is in view, with Illinois Gulch to the southeast.
