Regarding photo #3, does anyone know what that pipe of pipe is for, or used to be fore, on the far side of the canyon?

Date: 09/15/21 16:58 Re: K-37 493 Mixed Freight to Silverton Author: Elesco I second all of the above comments. Great photography with dramatic lighting and sky. #3 is the best, with #12 next in my opinion.
