This location seems to have been a staging area for the building of the railroad snowsheds. It is located between Eder and Tunnel 12 near the head of Lakeview Canyon. Below here, the railroad traversed the north side of Schallenberger Ridge, and above here it entered a series of tunnels on the way to the summit.
In the lower left corner of the original photo the laundry can be seen hanging off the back of the car. Must have been wash day.
