An Aerial Tramway for the Saline Valley Salt Company, Inyo County, California
This paper gives a brief statement of the prominent features of the location, construction, and operation of an aerial tramway built to carry salt, at the rate of 20 tons per hour, a distance of 13½ miles, from Saline Valley, over the Inyo Mountains, to a point in Owens Valley, California. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the terminology of aerial tramway design; also, that the ability of an aerial tramway system to transport materials economically and efficiently at the rate of 250 tons per hour or less is so well known as to make extensive discussion of these points unnecessary.
