The great Kings River flume in Fresno County, California, was used from 1890 to 1923 to carry logs from an elevation of 4500 ft where trees were cut to an elevation of 300 ft at the railhead. The flume was 54 miles long, constructed of wood, and had a V cross section as indicated in Fig. P10.25. It is claimed that logs would travel the length of the flume in 15 hr.
