Enjoyed your video tour. In 1970 as a kid my family explored copper mining areas on the UP. I found a 4" flat nugget outside a still standing copper mine shaft building. Was great to see what the mine shaft-building looked like. My older brother and I explored an abandoned 1 story copper processing factory. On the walls were posters from WWII ! I hoped for "Loose Lips Sink Ships" but found and took a WAAC Recruiting poster. (Women's Army Air Corps). At home after a while the poster several layers thick just crumbled from acidic paper aging. Down a flight of wet stairs a spooky bare overhead light bulb hung, still on. Outside, several rusted ore cars 'waited' on abandoned tracks. I wish I knew what village/ spot that was. Anybody know? Hope the mine shaft building and abandoned WWII factory is still there; hopefully it's been preserved in some way. Several years ago I Googled for pictures of it, but didn't find that particular one. Agree with another comment: "Pasties are amazing."

I understand your guy's frustration driving over in Houghton LOL. Over by the bridge and all the roads/turnabouts/one ways had me thrown off trying to get around. But so worth it! Thanks for sharing

Torch Lake is a EPA superfund site due to the mining activities of the past.

That sounds about right. The lake was really impacted by the mining. Several lakes in the area were.

You don't harvest copper you mine it. Just stay home!!!
@michele2017promastertravel11 күн бұрын
"Harvesting' was the word used for gathering copper from the lake bed in the UP at places we visited that had information boards about the process. Please be kind. Life is too short to be nit-picky and unkind for no reason. Be encouraging one to one another.
