Dredge #2 north of Sumpter. Built 1915.
Brooks Hawley note: "Dredge #2 of the Powder River Gold Dredging Co. Period of activity 1915-1923. This dredge went upstream past Sumpter toward Bourne. Bob Ingle, a sheep rancher, had it at the last but lost [money] on it. This dredge was next moved to Cle Elum, Washington. It was almost identical to Dredge #1 but had smaller buckets."
