EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the backbreaking labor of the freight team working on the Los Angeles Aqueduct in the early 1900s. The scene depicts ten and twelve mule teams, each laden with supplies, making their way from Division Siding to the tunnel camps high up in the mountains. The teams, consisting of both men and mules, were essential to the construction process of this engineering marvel, which brought water from the Owens Valley to the parched city of Los Angeles. The mule teams were the primary mode of transportation for conveying the necessary supplies to the remote tunnel camps, where workers toiled to excavate the mountain passes and build the aqueduct. The rugged terrain and harsh conditions made the journey a daunting task, but the teams persevered, driven by the knowledge that their efforts were crucial to the success of the project. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of the Los Angeles Aqueduct and the industry that brought water to the growing city. The teams, with their ten and twelve mules each, were a vital component of the transportation system that enabled the construction process to continue, despite the challenges of the mountainous terrain. The equipment and supplies they carried were essential to the progress of the project, and the teams' determination and grit were instrumental in overcoming the obstacles they faced. This photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the workers who built the Los Angeles Aqueduct, and it serves as a reminder of the importance of hard work and perseverance in the face of adversity. The freight teams played a pivotal role in the construction of this historic infrastructure project, and their legacy continues to inspire us today.
