I love to visit old mining areas, and the World Museum of Mining in Butte is a favorite of mine. They have preserved a huge segment of mining history in this sprawling area.

The museum started giving underground tours of the Early Girl
The miner is demonstrating how blasting the tunnel face was done
The Early Girl head frame
An interesting old truck
Looks like a monster!
This one is certainly weather-worn
