About Osceola Ditch
The Osceola Ditch, also known as the East Ditch, was built in 1889-1890 to convey water from Lehman Creek, Nevada to a hydraulic mine operation at Osceola. Extending for 18 mi, the ditch includes a 600 ft tunnel as well as wooden flumes. The project also includes a rock dam and headgate on Stella Lake.
