A Day Only a Mining Engineer Would Enjoy.
Drove from Missoula to Butte. Stopped to see the the World Museum of Mining, but it was closed for the winter. Settled for the Minerals Museum at Montana Tech.
My interest comes from my underground construction work. I started my engineering career with 3 years underground driving the 9.6 mile long Henderson Tunnel under the Continental Divide west of Empire, CO; another three underground at the Climax Molybdenum Mine hear Leadville, CO; another 5 years designing mines in Alaska, Montana, Washington, Colorado, and Chile; another 2 years underground at the WIPP nuclear waste repository near Carlsbad, NM, and 2 years designing a proposed high level nuclear waste repository near Amarillo, TX.
