Description
Kennedy Tailing Wheels Park preserves two of the remaining Kennedy Mine Tailing Wheels, the iconic symbols of the City of Jackson that were environmental pioneers during the hard rock mining era of the early 20th century.
Today, the two of the original four tailing wheels have been added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1981 in recognition of their significance to the hard rock mining era of California and the Mother Lode. Expect to see an information kiosk with historical photographs and information about the engineering and operation of the wheels, restrooms and picnic benches that are available to the public.
