Frank Maloit's 1930 Hupmobile during spring mud season. The road from Red Cliff to Leadville wasn't paved until the mid-1930s. [The Hupmobile was produced from 1909-1940 by the Hupp Motor Company in Detroit.--Wikipedia] Over the left rear of the Hupmobile is the roof of the old Powder House. Beyond that is the Mine Warehouse where Jim Walsh was storekeeper. Beyond that is the head frame for the mine hoist.
