Looks like a mining op in Wyoming somewhere, maybe out of Cody?
Sorry Sun Dance, not a mining op and not in Wyoming.
construction of highway 89a between Jacobs Lake and House Rock valley.
Sorry #7, but this was not highway construction. And also not in Arizona.
EDIT: On second thought, I guess it eventually ended up being a highway...
Is this a dam construction site?
That's what I was thinking as well.Quote:

Flaming Gorge?

I hope I didn't confuse anyone with the highway clue. Kurt caught me off guard and I quickly replied that it wasn't a highway when in fact the highway would go across the dam when it was finished.
Here is a pic looking upstream.

OK, last one I'll post for a while. Hint: It is not in Utah (and has nothing to do with Utah), but this photo is similar to a famous historical one taken in 1898 (though at a different time of year). The photo pertains to a fairly famous event in history. The event occurred between 1896 and 1899.

I'll assume it is Chilkoot Pass, and the historical event you reference would be the Klondike Gold Rush.
Yes. Here are some of the historic photographs, one of them from a different angle.

Yes.
