In 1950, J. Bremner, his son, and one employee mined on Last Chance Creek using hydraulic equipment. He got water from ditches and from a diesel pump bringing water from the creek. They experienced a shortage of water during the season, and their 150.32 of recovered fine ounces was less than they recovered in 1949.((R.L.
