Welcome! This blog is all about my adventures hiking around the Keweenaw in the UP. I like hiking with different agendas including rock hounding, hunting waterfalls, trying out a new trail, or just taking in the view. Enjoy!

Cliff Mine
July 1, 2010: Today my daughter and I headed out to the cliff today. We drove out Cliff Dr. off of 41 N. to go to the Cliff Mine. We hiked a little around the base of the cliff. We seen some of the old foundations and looked over some of the poor rock piles. The piles have recently been reworked by a bulldozer and there are fresh places to look for copper, greenstones, or whatever strikes you. We found some neat pieces of copper and mineral deposits in with the poor rock. It was a fun start to the day. We got out of there just as the rain started to fall.
