The Iron Range

Friday evening, Liz Plahn, Colin Tretcher and I ventured northward to Chisholm, MN on the Iron Range in search of blue collar working Americans. The following is a collection of images and memories from the trip. Those crispys'll be a few minutes.
the team creates an elaborate plan of attack
A view of one of the iron pits
While Colin checks out the blasting site, Liz checks out some sweet screenprinted didactics
Amazing plaster people in Iron World
Plucky, the Research center's beaver taxidermy mascot. (Next year they're saving up to get his chin stapled shut)
As per usual, Liz with a pile of research
Last looks as we head out of town and journey back to the Cities
A quick stop forthe end of sunset at a trail head with machines parts displayed as sculptures. Really amazing
