Description
The most popular destination in Wrangell St. Elias National Park is the Kennecott Mines National Historic Landmark. At the turn of the 20th century, some of the richest copper in the world was discovered here, in the rugged and remote wilderness of Alaska. This is a classic analog photo which I recently had digitized. It showcases the variety of rooflines and the rickety staircase next to the high-grade ore chute. That staircase has recently been restored. It's still there, but no longer so rickety and picturesque as it once was.
