It used to be a cable car from one of the mines. It was located just above the nearest building on the left. I think mining stopped there some time in the early sixties. But I feel that it's very much part of the history of the place. It's kind of bizarre, all these now historic items present. I think the locals (yeah, there are long-term residents and even some natives up here) take a bit of pride in whatever is visible of the mining history here. -- http://www.alunfoto.no/galleri/ http://alunfoto.blogspot.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
