The only flume left at the Kennedy Wheels, shows how the tailings were moved from one wheel to the other so it could be transferred over the hill to the impound dam.

 

 

There are plans to restore the other two tailing wheels in the future

 

 

Visit our Kennedy Mine and Argonaut Mine pages to learn more and see how they look today. We also have photos you can review with information on how the mines looked when they were in operation.

Visit the Amador County Museum located on Church Street, at the eastern edge of downtown Jackson for more information on the Tailing Wheels.
