WHAT'S NEW AT TREADWELL?!
The Treadwell Society will soon install our 16th Interpretive Sign in the Treadwell Mine Historic Park. This sign is about the energy sources used to run the mines and the transitions from hydro-mechanical to hydroelectric, and supplemental coal to supplemental oil. Featuring two newly discovered photos of the 1907 construction of the Treadwell oil tanks, the sign should be installed sometime this winter near the Tennis Court and Central Steam Plant. 
The thundering stamps that defined this once highly industrialized site have long been silenced. Since our inception the Treadwell Society has encouraged continuing and compatible contemporary uses of the site. Recreational strolling, dog-walking, educational field trips, interpretative hikes, and cross-country skiing along the historic trail can lead to greater stewardship of this important site. |
