A view of Walker Webster Gulch, near where the claims overlapped. You can see that the terrain does not have a consistent slope, making judgments of horizontal distance more difficult.

Note: This is the sixth article in a series on the Conkling Mining Co. v. Silver King Coalition Mines Co. lawsuit.
In November 1889, United States Deputy Surveyor Adolf Jessen spent his 39th birthday surveying the Conkling lode mining claim in Park City’s Uintah Mining District. An experienced mining engineer and surveyor, he had a civil engineering diploma from the School of Engineering at Mannheim, Germany. Mr. Jessen’s soundness of knowledge was respected by all of the mining men in Utah who knew him.

Note: This is the second of two articles about the creation of the Spiro Tunnel.
As described in part one of this series, in late 1915 Solon Spiro’s King Con mine company announced plans to drive a 14,000-foot-long development and exploration tunnel to its mine claims in Thaynes Canyon.
Work commenced on “the long bore” in May of 1916. The first task was to level the site and prepare it for the power and drilling equipment to be moved onsite, as well as a machine shop and powder house. The project was expected to take several years and to produce ore in sufficient quantities to offset costs when about half of the tunnel was completed. An October 1916 Park Record story referenced the tunnel as the “Spiro tunnel” and that name seemed to be commonly used thereafter. The tunnel proceeded into the mountain at an average of 10 feet a day.

The presence of Hispanic people in Utah dates back to the early 1500s when the area was explored by Spanish conquistadors. Just a few Hispanics or Latinos resided in Park City at the turn of the 20th century, hailing from Spain, Portugal and Brazil. In the early mining days of our community, the locally prominent and beloved Martinez family immigrated here from Spain and provided four generations of miners (and another generation of Silver Mine Adventure workers) to our local community.
