This is the raw hole in the ground that White River Electric Coop dug at Skyline School. Skyline is served by White River Electric Coop |
| This steel was put into the ground in trenches dug by hand to hold the pole in place and to serve as deadmen. The other end of these pieces of steel have hooks on them and were driven into the ground before the crane released the pole. | ![]() |

Here you can see the pole in place with the deadmen tied to it and the form ready for pouring the concrete |
