THIRTEEN MILE TRAM IN SALINE VALLEY
DRIVE THE MULE FROM ANOTHER FIELD

Ghostly buckets travelling at the
rate Of 500 feet per minute are now
dropping into the Saline valley and
taking out the pure virgin salt that
once was hauled many weary miles
over the desert by sweating mules
These buckets with carrying ca
pacity of 700 pounds, travel through
the air a distance Of 26 miles from
the time they leave Swansea, the
headquarters of the Saline Valley
Salt company on this side of the
mountains, until they return laden
from the salt fields, During that
time they are not touched by the
hand of man. So perfect is the
mechanism which controls them that
the buckets make scarcely a sound
as they travel over the thirteen mile
tram.
The tram, which is the longest
of its kind ever constructed, was
built for the Saline Valley Salt com
pany 1t is thirteen miles long and
is made up of five sections, each
working independently of the others
The tram is electrically driven and
rs h. p. is generated by the dowr
pull on the west side of the noun
tain which is used to assist the pull
4 ing of the loaded buckets up the cas-
side. The buckets when travelling
over the summit of the mountain
reach an elevation Of $500 feet
The tram is guaranteed to carr!
20 tons of salt per hour and is 81
constructed that this capacity ma!
be doubled at any time by the u.s.
of heavier cables.
The Saline Valley salt fields wer
originally located by J. L. Bourlan,
about 40 years ago. Some year
