A prairie rose blooms near the remains of what were once 16 charcoal kilns built in 1886 by Montanan Warren C. King in Lemhi County, Idaho. The brick kilns were used to turn timber into charcoal, which powered a smelter in Nicholia, across the Birch Creek Valley, to process lead and silver from the Viola Mine.
