HI Eric: I used to ramble thru some of the old mine tailings near Hancock which is on the Kewannauu in my early rockhound days. The penninsula main road has a marker indicating the snow levels in years past. One of the markers recorded over 160" of snow one year. It is beautiful country up there. I used to search the shores of Lake Superior for Agates and copper samples. I even have a sample with visible copper stringers. I sure hope a nice discovery is made because it may help some of the jobless people in that area find work. They currently run a higher than normal unemployment rate. The Penninsula is more tourist driven economy but is truly rich in copper history. A lot of the old homes in Hancock were turn of the century, very old but rich in copper heritage. Sincerely George Also a caveat. Houghton and Hancock are sister towns, also the home of Mich Tech. A great school with excellent mining research facilities.
