Hurley and Montreal Wisconsin for those into mining relics..

[dirthog]

Most of the mines in this area closed in the 60's. The company store/community center, that was the community gathering spot was tore down 4 years ago.. It is on Hwy 77 in Montreal Wi. next to the Rose Wreath Co. There are numerous old sites in the area for detecting and some structures still remaining. Area was settled by Italians, English and Finnish miners and lumberjacks. Old French trading area of Springstead is being preserved in southern Iron County also.
