Ramp to the elevator house - pump house to left housing
the rotary pumps which washed away the ice shavings
from the planer (half way up the ramp).
Huge piles of ice shavings accumulated under the ramp.

Thank you for posting these pictures and informant. My grandfather, along with his dad, were icemen of Bantam Lake. I enjoyed walking among the remnants of that history.
