This image shows the project shovel being positioned in an area to be developed as a gravel source. The shovel, with its bucket raised and cabin tilted back, stands in foreground with a dump truck behind. Two men are visible, one at right of the shovel and one standing beside the truck. Foreground is an expanse of broken rock which will likely become the borrow pit, and an alpine mountain slope rises behind in background.
