Monighan Photos Sumpter, Oregon
The Monighan has been resting, quietly, in the mountains less than a mile from town-hidden in the Sumpter brush and Ponderosa pines since it last worked here in the Sumpter Valley. That is until August of 2008, when some Members and Volunteers, moved the Monighan down to it's present home on display at the Cracker Creek Museum of Mining here in Sumpter! Since its retirement so many years ago from the Gold Mining Scene in the Sumpter area, the Monighan has weathered many years of sitting idle and it shows in recent photos. Like the Gold Dredge, this once hardworking gold mining machine has been saved from obscurity by some abmbitous volunteers who are proud to share these Monighan Photos below. Enjoy! |
