Okay, you men out there - to listen, because it is so time for you to know people a clue. I do not know where the middle to the end of 1900 male idea of the helpless women came from, but it's a quarter past high time for you all over it. Women do not have the brute strength ounce per ounce, that a man has, we are not arguing, dass If I plow an acre of land I would certainly hire a man over a woman any day. Where the idea that I am at a loss is given by, ielike a quantum leap of logic that it is not realistically be given to give any credence.
I'm going to cut you a little slack, and blame it on the fact that life has become in America
Kusch so that people just do not really get much chance to see what can make a woman
when put to the test. Did I forget to mention in the last paragraph, that if there was no one I could
Rent, I'd done it on my own.
I am a woman. I am a Rock Hound. As a Rock Hound, I'm goingto collect points in the Wilderness
my treasures. I do this without any company other than my dog most of the time. It is relaxing and
keeps me mentally strong, physically fit and well maintained. Unfortunately, I keep getting
slammed by people who think it's wrong for me to do. It is dangerous. I'm too old. The car
could fail. I could be lost. Anything could happen. And that is truly that, among
my skin - I belong at home when I work or on runningErrands. These are serious
Attitude that I was confronted with often.
A February, I was stranded in the Ochoco Mountains. Temperatures were in the single digits
in the night. It took me 4 days out. As I indicated to take the main road, I get a car on a trip to
City. My dog and I were a bit dirty, but not feeling too bad. On the same day that I went

easier, too. The press has been really good. I was never contacted to speak to the media - believe it
could have made the guy look bad, or just was not exciting, not to save a large part.
When I was in the city, I called my boss. He fired me without even asking if I was okay.He
merely noted that I lost anything go out of me. Not even on a day off. Until today I have
convinced that I was a man, would my skills in more of the situation in one piece
were strongly applauded. Would a man have said that they had no business leaving the
House on a day off?
Another man asked me if I "learned my lesson," which means that I now knew my place in
at home. I quickly pointed out that yes I had. I learned thatfor a 44-year-old woman, which I still
pretty buff. I have also learned that I still have a bonfire that would make an Indian cry can build
Jealousy. Oh yes, and that crabs and fish are really easy to catch when the water is cold enough.
The truth is that in the history of this nation, women have to be able to handle proved
all conditions can a man who can handle any crisis, a man, and even surpass the self-financing in the
harshest environments. Some of them can be betteras the man who had
told them that their place in the family.
Mining towns and camps were not the easiest places to live. Just about some of these
Cities in those days was often a life-threatening journey. The women were just as likely to survive
the journey than the men. The cities themselves were often built to be temporary and were
nothing more than tents or huts with clay soil is best. Winters were bitter, food often scarce
if the weather does notCare by enabling car. But there were also women in these camps.
Surprisingly, many had earned more money than the miners.
Once in the camps, women proved to be very enterprising, very necessary and very well able
to handle the conditions. They built businesses Miner's washing clothes, cleaning, etc.
Money was by good cooks.
A woman miner, Mrs. CJ Everson of the British Empire, from Colorado to their property, if they
discovered and patented a new means ofConcentration of metals by pouring powdered ore in a
Solution of water and an oily substance and stirring it. In the early 1880s, the new method was
Concentration allowed many local mines to double and triple the production of gold and silver.
Bet none of the miners who always told her that they should not be there.
Of course there were women too, that went into the field of mining itself. I can not
imagine a man who tells so stubborn and always fadeNellie Cashman, that she had not
Business out there in the rough that she is too weak to handle the rough or not smart enough
Environment.
Nellie was born in Ireland in 1845 and her family came to America during the famine. In
1872, she and her mother after the Pioche, Nevada mining camp area and opened a
Pension there. Pretty rough country for a couple of women on their own, one of whom at the age of
Woman.
Nellie moved a few years later when theyon their own Cassiar district of British Columbia, near
Juno, where now stands, where they in a boarding house and started to do really
Some placer mining operations of their own.
It was here, she claimed the title "Angel of Mercy". Nellie was in the Victoria area, if they
heard that their colleagues Cassiar miners were affected by an extremely heavy snow storm. Nobody was able to
through. Supplies were scarce. The people were sick. It was not much time to lose in the rescue
theirFriends. How could she get through? Not able man, who had tried was.
No one remembered to tell Nellie that her place in the home was. She gathered supplies,
Dogs and sleds, put a few hands went to the rescue. Nobody could do it. But
Nellie.
Your ability to get through the snow that no one else could get away, brings save lives
Medicines and supplies to the camp made them famous. Nobody told Nellie that she had not
Business outside- The fact that she was not able to or that could happen to her, or that they
did not belong out there. The miners were damn grateful that they had to walk the sand - they
she thought, like a hero. She had saved them from miserable death. She had reached
What was not a man to do in the situation.
Nellie continued to work and hotels and boarding houses in mining areas. She was also quite
Knowledge of geology and mining activities, and had several demands. She mademuch
Money and gave much of it to hospitals and churches. In 1905, at the age of 60 years, moved to Nellie
Nolan Creek in Koyukuk country, the northern mining area at the time, and a more than

At the age of 79 years, she finally gave her a tendency mines and claims, if her health is deteriorating

They had contributed much funding for forty years. She died there in January 1925, at the
Age of 80 years.
Okay, sure is a woman, but there were others. Need more convincing?
Caroline Moorehouse Mallin, Ohio, born in 1829, was a widow with 2 children. It was
A very successful miner in the Buena Vista area of Colorado. They worked very
dangerousin many places at high altitudes, and had included 15 mines in their name. Caroline
worked these claims by itself.
The work was not easy. Caroline has her own mining work - based their mines with wood,
drilled and blasted, and even the Orcs went through her little self. At home life was not easier. They
had to haul water nearly a mile, and had to move back down the mountain and supplies. After
everything she had two children to care for on her own. When the end ofMiner's day had come, and
The men began their journey home to sit and relax after a busy day, Caroline got to go with it
Second job - her home and her family. Someone forgot to tell her that this kind of life was too hard for
a woman, or that they could be lost if she ventured from home on their own for supplies.
Olga Schaaf is another woman who just missed the fact that the wilderness is no place for a
Woman. Olga started breaking horses for pay at the age of fourteen.In twenty-six, she married a
Mine owners and worked for him at Burros pack trains up the mountains to deliver to materials
for the miners, who had no way to get supplies in winter. Olga was known as a stranded
Mine in a snow storm, they could (to save the lives of miners and their own way),
It goes on, Up and down she knew so well to the safety and care. None of the
Miners get Olga's delivered supplies, even those they savedfrom the mine told her that
required to remain a woman at home, because it could happen if they leave the house on
their own.
Mollie Kathleen Gortner had a different reason for going to mining country - Cripple Creek
Colorado. She went to visit her son. Though they are looking for a herd of elk her son had
told her when she accidentally discovered gold, find one, that started its own mining career. Her son
began its first request for them, but the manager atthe claims office told her that women could not file
Claims. When she left the office, but was soon the proud owner of
famous Mollie Kathleen Mine. Guess someone forgot, they say that it was too rough for a woman
out there.
Doctor Susan Anderson (Doc Susie) of Fort Wayne, Indiana, moved to the mountains for their
Health after finding out that she had tuberculosis. She went from Cripple Creek to Denver and on
Greeley found little acceptance in theseCities for women doctors. She moved back to the
Mountains of Fraser, Colo., when her illness worsened. She did not say that the people there
she was a doctor, but word eventually leaked, despite. Doc Suzie ended with many patients
and was aware that in very remote places in very difficult weather conditions to travel, to treat them. The sick and
Injured miners treated them seem to forget to mention that a woman she was probably
to lose if they went out intothe mountains on her own.
Well, if these stories are not convincing, all you need to do is through the history of trolls
Number of mining areas during the time of the great gold rush. Women played a major part of this story.
It provided not only the services that Bergmann's necessary, but many were miners themselves,
worked all day, only to return home to take care of their families and friends. The men in these camps
and say no towns, the women remain at home. They did not knowadmonish them for going into
Environments that are hostile or downright dangerous, or where life was hard. Sure bad things
could happen - but they could, and not to people they do. (Hmmn. Nobody has ever said, a man whom he
should have stayed home if something happened to him while he was out). Men knew that they
needs these women, and were grateful that the girls could handle it out there as well. Life would be
have been much rougher without them.
All in all, where people came withthe idea that women are helpless really unclear. Have they
