Champion Mine, Painesdale, Michigan, 1990. The structure's in better repair , now.

Champion Mine, Painesdale, Michigan, 1991; this is the entrance to the headframe. The last copper mine to close on the Keweenaw Peninsula. Functioning as a water works at the time; I suspect it still is, but that's not clear at the site. Taken during a tour with the Soo Line Historical and Technical Society's DSS&A Special Interest Group. Now a restoration project, and a potential museum.
