Thanks for all the replies so far, a few look like possibilities and that is my dilemma so keep them coming. I originally thought it is reminiscent of the Royal Gorge as well, but aside from the front Mineral Wells attribution I also found a March 1911 newspaper article about Mineral Wells presenting the White Sox players with burros which had a photo of Ed Walsh on a burro in the same location.

Here is a good list of players in camp on 3-3-1911

Yes it is unquestionably Mineral Wells, the donkey rides were a thing they did.

I have no knowledge, but this is really cool to me, as I'm not too far away in Fort Worth.

This probably doesn't add much but it's the White Sox training in 1913....and I have some 1921 postcards of them training too, one in Waco..

What does the 1920-21 postcards look like? Would love to see them!

Here is another 1911 Spring Training RPPC of the White Sox in Stephenville, Texas. Note the tricycle in the foreground.
