The Kennicott Mine, also called the Kennecott Mine, is located in Interior Alaska. This copper mine had its heyday in the early 1900’s. Located in the area known as McCarthy, this ghost town mine once employed hundreds of people.  Today it stands as a reminder of days gone by.  Visitors come from all across the world to step back into the days of the Kennicott Copper Mine.  This glacier field has a green tint to it. This comes from the copper in the dirt. During its heyday structures were created to hold back the ice and dirt. Today it is a reminder and a beautiful scene to observe.
