説明 | Photo from the California Zephyr - In the foreground to can see the "Brooks Water Wheel" which was constructed to scoop water from the Colorado river and fill irrigation ditches.. ( At McCoy Colorado)The wheel is one of several such devices built at this spot. In 1910, when the surrounding ranch was owned by George Bailey, a wooden wheel was in place and gave the ranch its name: the Water Wheel Ranch. When Earle Brooks purchased the ranch from the next owner, John Quinlan, on Nov. 10, 1919, he also applied for three cubic feet of water per second rights from the Colorado River to the water wheel ditch. These were granted in 1923. Before these augmented rights were granted, Brooks had built a ranch house, bridge and metal wheel. See more information Here |
