Similar photo of building in previous image taken in August of 2009 of the living quarters at this Sneffels, CO Mine. The building has suffered a collapse of it's support timbers in the
southwest corner. These buildings deserve some kind of preservation. Not complete reconstruction but at least left as historic ruins that do not collapse into a pile of unrecognizable boards.

Close up view of the Atlas Mine and Stamp Mill in Yankee Boy Basin from CR 26. Image taken August 2009. This building has suffered the kind of damage you would expect of a high
altitude construction over the course of six years. The roof is essentially gone. After the historic image, the next four images show the interior of the building in June of 2002.
The first of these images clearly shows a roof and that roof appears to have been destroyed by winter weather conditions in this image.
