kennecott, McCarthy and the wrangell-st.Elias mountains, one of my favorite spots in America!!
kennecott had been one of the biggest copper mines in the world (of Guggenheim fame) and was closed literally overnight in 1938. and everything was being left behind!
a trip into the past and/or a steampunk paradise! offices, the powerplant, bunkhouses, cottages, ore concentrater, the airtram coming from the mines. absolutely everything is there in various degrees of decay, from well preserved to collapsing. what a sight!
