ABOUT THIS ARTWORK: BRIDAL VEIL FALLS HYDROELECTRIC POWER PLANT
The photogenic Smuggler-Union Hydroelectric Power Plant sits precariously near the top of Bridal Veil Falls near Telluride. It is the last structure left from the Smuggler-Union Mining Company, one of the state’s most important mineral producers in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Discovered in 1875, The Smuggler gold vein was the first gold discovery in San Miguel County. However, due to the extremely remote and rugged terrain, no ore was shipped until 1881. It wasn't until the mid 1880s that significant ore shipments were made. The mine would grow to be one of the three largest in the district, along with the Tomboy and the Libery Bell and would employ about 300 men.

The Smuggler-Union Hydroelectric Powerplant, also known as the Bridal Veil Powerhouse, is an electric power generation plant and residence located next to Bridal Veil Falls on a 400-foot cliff overlooking Telluride, Colorado. The structure is 2+1?2 stories on a poured concrete foundation with a wood frame superstructure. It consists of a main power plant building, a 1+1?2-story residence and a 1-story cookhouse. The power plant foundation is distinctive, with semicircular windows. A semicircular bay with arched windows projects out on a rock spur.

The Smuggler-Union Hydroelectric Powerplant was built to power the Smuggler-Union Mine 2,000 feet below in 1907, providing alternating current for industrial purposes. The plant was proposed by Smuggler-Union Mine manager Buckley Wells who lived in the residence as a summer home until the 1920s. It was originally accessed in winter by an aerial tramway but that was eventually destroyed. It operated in its original configuration until its decommissioning in 1953, serving the Idarado Mining Company.

The living quarters and especially the power house/generator fell into disrepair and were heavily vandalized by the time of the historic registry survey in 1979. A local resident, Eric Jacobson, acquired a 99-year lease from the Idarado Mining Company for the property in 1988 and proceeded to restore the facility and eventually moved his family into the residence. The AC plant was restored to operation in 1991 with power being generated by its original 2300 volt generator, one of the oldest AC generators still in operation. In 2010 Jacobson gave up the lease to the Idarado Mining Company citing continual regulation and legal problems associated with the site. Idarado has kept the plant in operation and the power generated now provides about 25 percent of Telluride's demand for electricity.
