All summer we have wanted to go out to see Kennacott Copper Mine. Steve had last Monday off and so we decided to make the trip. Are friend Eric, who Steve works with, came with us. It was rather cold since we had just gotten that nice snow storm. It was still very impressive to see and learn about the mine. They work 24/7 and have a very impressive system for extracting the copper. The trucks they use are MASSIVE! When you look at them down in the pit they don't look that big but when you see one of the tires from the trucks your perspective changes. It was a nice trip and we were glad we took the time to go and see the mine.
