Another view, showing broken crosspiece on the ground.

Looks like a snag, except that it's too tall and straight for the piñon/juniper in the area (note dogs at base for scale); and there's a broken crosspiece and rusty fastener by the base. And I've found additional old pole fragments in the area. Apparently the line ran power from Virginia City to the Jumbo mill. The timeframe (early 1900s) is right, as mills were being electrified around then. This is evidently the only pole that's still standing, though.
