California Placer County Hauling Freight to a Mine Real Photo Postcard

The postcard depicts a teaming operation, referring to the use of multiple draft animals to haul heavy loads, originating from a location known as Cash Rock. In the early 20th century, such operations were vital for resource extraction in California's mountainous regions, transporting timber, ore, and supplies to and from remote sites. The substantial team of horses and the robust wagon suggest the movement of heavy materials, characteristic of the era's industrial endeavors.
