A little bit of history:

"The Paris mill is located on the eastern slope of the Mosquito Range in Park County, Colorado at an altitude of 11,000'. Construction of the mill was completed in 1895 to service the Paris Mine high above Buckskin Gulch on Mount Bross. The complex ore and high altitude location of the mine, which was first discovered in 1878, hampered the profitability of the mine and so it's investors constructed the mill and tramway in order to reduce transportation and smelting costs. The mill saw a nearly constant stream of investors throughout its first 40 years who strove to improve its profitability and retrofit the building with the latest milling technology."
