This is a photograph of George U. Young standing next to a Mill, presumably in the Thumb Butte Mining District. This is not the same mill site that is depicted on Mineral Survey 2424, not even close.
Mineral Survey 2424 identifies a ‘mill’ within the alleged ‘Puritan’ Lode Claim space. This is not the same ground location on the earth that is at the lower portion of the gulley location -at what is considered the westerly area adjacent Skyline Drive at ‘Highland Pines’, down off of Windy Ridge Drive.

Pay special attention to the horses on the hill behind the water tank on the above photograph.
