Kennecott Copper Mine

I've lived in Utah my whole life and never been here...
So we took the kids for a drive and went to see it. It was really cool to see. I don't have all the facts but it is one of the only man made things you can see from space, and if I remember right they said that if the empire state building were in here it wouldn't even reach halfway up the hole.



So, take a look at those little trucks going up the path there are 4 right in a row they kinda look like ants.

Now take a look a this tire that the kids are standing by. This is one of the wheels that goes on those little trucks.

I was blown away by the size too. Those trucks look so small down there. Did the kids have a good time. I need to do more things like that. Glad you had fun!!
