This interesting picture gives one a good idea of an incline shaft.” This incline extends from the tip of the mill to a point on the Gregory Vein 2,200 feet below. Unlike either the cage or bucket shafts, an incline shaft is provided with a track on which cars are hauled, as shown. The construction of this “incline” is reputed to have cost over $200,000.”
