Early in September surveys were started at Chanticleer and the exact location was fixed between Mist, Gordon and Multnomah Falls. Following this a construction camp was established and work started between these points.
At Camp 1 dump carts loaded by hand were used extensively. At Camp 2 a steam drag scraper was operated successfully. The larger portion of the work was done by hand, using small cars and track.
The work was begun at Camp 1 in October, 1913; at Camp 2 and 3 in the February following; at Camp 4 in March, and Camp 5 in June, 1914. All work completed November 1, 1914.
