We found this amusing--the windmill is obviously defunct, with only the tower left, but a solar panel is running the well pump! And it must be working--the stock tank is full. North of Sulphur, Nevada, east of the Black Rock Desert. The high point on the skyline, just to the right of the solar panel, is King Lear Peak (8923 ft/2720 m), high point of the Jackson Range.

Just gotta love it. :-) It does make good sense though, with far less maintenance than a windmill.

It seemed rather incongruous! And unfortunately, the solar panels are much more vulnerable to vandalism.
