Скачать или смотреть The LARGEST Stopes We’ve Ever Seen in an Abandoned Copper Mine!

Staked in 1897, this massive abandoned copper mine would grow into one of the largest operations of its kind in Western Washington, operating intermittently through the mid 1940s..

This massive operation carved out over 12,000 feet of underground workings, weaving through the mountain in a maze of tunnels, drifts, and raises. Among its most impressive features are two enormous five-story stopes, towering underground chambers that reveal the true scale of early hard-rock mining.

From the rugged boom days of the late 19th century to its final years during World War II–era production, this mine played a significant role in Washington’s copper industry. Today, it stands as a powerful reminder of the grit, engineering, and risk that defined early mining operations in the Pacific Northwest.

Join us as we explore the history, scale, and underground remains of this remarkable site.

Many ghost towns, mines and other forgotten historic sites in Washington State have already disappeared from history and many more are being lost each year to the ravages of time, wildfire, vandalism, and intentional closure. In addition to our many years of photographic documentation of these important historic sites we are now attempting to video document as many sites as we can so there is a lasting record of these places for future generations.

We hope you enjoy what we do and will join us on our adventures through a bygone era of Washingtons rich history. Not only do we love the history we explore and document, but we truly enjoy sharing these sites and experiences with our followers and viewers.

We appreciate you and thank you for Watching!!
