Kennecott Copper Mine

We lived in Utah for 4 years and never went to one of its "biggest" tour attractions. Since moving back to Lethbridge, we've probably made another 20 trips back to Utah. Everytime we go, Wayne always says, "Maybe we should go up to the Copper Mine!" It never sounded very fun, so we never did it. Until now.

Jade and her boys joined us for our little adventure up to the biggest open pit mine in the world. It is so large, it is visible from space. It is a really BIG hole in the ground and it was actually more interesting than I thought it would be. The boys all thought it was really great, especially the massive trucks that were hauling the earth away.

My grandpa worked at the mine. We had never been until a few years ago.
