Unreal

2 September

One of two abandoned donkey engines (a steam powered winch) on the West Coast Trail. There is one at either end, each about 5km in.

From Wikipedia: "If a donkey was to be moved, one of its cables was attached to a tree, stump or other strong anchor, and the machine would drag itself overland to the next yarding location." For the life of me I cannot fathom how this happened considering the terrain!
