[QUOTE="grubstake, post: 429943, member: 4012"] Every drop of water was precious in the old days, especially to prospectors who didn't have pumps or even pipes to bring it to where they needed it. All they had was simple hand tools - picks, shovels, buckets, etc. - and a willingness to undertake hard manual labour in a shared cause. I'm in awe of how much they were able to accomplish with so little. [/QUOTE]
