Noe's Views, No. 29 South C Street, Virginia, Nevada. Reverse has paper label identifying this as the Utah Mine Hoisting Works. The contrast is light, with decent focus. The Utah Mine was located at the north end of Virginia City in Sevenmile Canyon one mile north of town. It was staked in 1859, lay dormant from the mid-1860s to early 1870s, and then reopened in 1872 after the Crown Point bonanza in Gold Hill. It was worked in the 1880s and early 1890s.
