Ron grew up in Wendover (although not born 'til the late 40s - early 50s). I
asked him about the wheels connected with pipes -- and here's his response:
Begin forwarded message:
What a mystery! Besides the wheels all hooked together there is a paddle
wheel of some sort and a device spraying water out in the middle of the pond.
Must be some sort of test operation being done by the potash company back
then. I assume these were taken in 1937 like the Eyston photos.
His comments include other photos from the same spread.
