              Plumes of smoke rise from the rotary snow plow and helper engines on the way to Boreas Pass, east of Breckenridge, Colorado. Because it was not self-propelled, the rotary snow plow required four to six railroad locomotives to push it through deep drifts of snow. Men stand on the side to watch the rotary throw snow from the tracks. Tenmile Range in the background. During the "Big Snow" event of 1898-1899.
