Burros packing ore up a mountain to a Jerome copper smelter. Burros worked alongside individual prospectors, and they worked for full-scale mining operations as well. The town of Cottonwood was so-named because it served as the staging area for building Jerome. It was from this flat area, under the protection of large cottonwood trees, that teams of donkeys were assembled to undertake climbing the steep and treacheous geography of Jerome.
