Description
EAGLE LAKE SAWMILL FLY WHEEL - The plaque on this flywheel located in the park near the entrance to The Exploration Place in Prince George, British Columbia, reads:
"This 16 foot diameter flywheel was installed by Eagle Lake Sawmills at Giscome, BC sometime prior to 1928.
Drive by a "Corliss" steam engine, it used a 30 inch wide 3-ply leather belt to drive the entire mill, from the jackladder to the green-chain, until 1965 when the mill updated to electric power."
