Clew to lost mine in a wheelbarrow discovery
In Strawberry Valley Yuba County California on June 17 a wheelbarrow preserved for nearly 50 years was unearthed on the old Peterson place three miles east of town.

The wheelbarrow and the supposed longtom share a common history with G A Lydle, whose wealth from the lodge was noted in early mining days. The Petersen place owner Butler joins the Travis brothers in a renewed search for the exact ledge location.
