Two Harbors Ore Docks plus Radcliffe R Latimer departure Two Harbors, MN 06/05/24

After seeing the Mark W Barker depart Duluth, MN, I went up to Two Harbors, MN to see the CN ore docks and some more ship action. While it was definitely warmer than the day before, the weather was still very unpredictable and storms popping up nearby. Two ships including the John G Munson were anchored just off the coast while another was finishing up getting loaded with ore. Luckily the ship at the dock would leave so that was cool to see and also got to see some workers clean off the docks with water. Surprise fighter jets showed up probably from the Minnesota National Guard based at the Duluth International Airport. Enjoy and don't forget to comment and subscribe!!!!

7:24 The Radcliffe R. Latimer departs Two Harbors with Iron Ore loads. The ship was launched in 1978 and is owned by the Algoma Central. At 730 ft long it's about an average sized boat for the lakes!!
