History? Any idea what this is?

This is located near a mine in AF Canyon that I have been researching... It is ~6" in diameter (at the top) and looks as if at one time it was hollow (filled with junk now).

Look familiar to anyone? Well head?

Maybe its an airvent, or airline?

i am guessing a well head of some sort.

Hmmm, I hadn't thought of that... There really isn't a mine shaft below it (that I know of). It is at the site of an old cabin, a ways off from the actual mine. I was almost thinking it could have been a septic tank but considering the mine was last worked in the early 1900's I doubt they were too worried about closed septic systems...

Its particular shape is kindve odd (too me at least), I was hoping someone here had seen one in use somewhere else... I guess a well head is the most likely option...

It's a primitive urinal....

It's a water well.

Have you seen others in your travels Shawn? You have probably been to this too.. its near the Midwest Tunnel (just south of Miller Hill and a block or so West of SB's property). You can drive right too it off of the Miller Hill trail...

Saw one like that on a Home Inprovment show. They slide a pump and hose down into it. I haven't noticed that one.
