My grandfather worked here as a steel rigger most of his adult life, raising his kids and taking care of his family. From the 1920's into the late 50's. Long before Copperhill was a tourist destination for rafting, the copper mines were the main source of revenue for the community. Thank you so much for posting this picture. I've added it, with photo credits attached, to my genealogy page.

Thank you, Life...through Leesha's lens for sharing your story. The photographer, Marion Post Wolcott, also took some black and white photos of this location at the same time, like this one: www.loc.gov/pictures/item/fsa2000032603/PP/
