Took a day hike recently with some friends up to an old limestone quarry in the Simi Valley area of Southern California. Spotted a P&H dipper shovel from the '20's and also a Best 25. Quite an inaccessible area - in the '20's the original equipment was walked in using crude roads cut on the steep slopes, but landslides have since ruined the old road and only steep, narrow hiking trails remain. The 25 actually looks pretty good as regards its undercarriage, since it apparently only ran a crusher using a PTO shaft drive and stayed mostly stationary. - Richard

Very Cool!

Thems some sexy shoes she's wearing.

I believe this is what a lot of folks would call "Yard Art".

I hope someone saves the shovel. It looks more promising than the tractor.
Can we have a location on a map? Or is this some top secret location that nobody wants to leak.
