THE SIERRA

The Shaver Mill purchased two Lima Shay locomotives, the first in 1902 to bring sawlogs to the millpond from the Dinkey Creek area some 12 miles distance. Pictured is the "Sierra", the first of the Shays, crossing a trestle with a load of logs on the way to the log dump at Shaver Mill Pond located to the west of the present location of the Shaver Lake Fishing Club.
