This trestle is on the Quincy Smelter property, which operated from 1898 to 1971. It's right off the highway and right next to Portage Lake! You can walk around most of it, but a high metal fence prevents you from walking amongst and into most of the main buildings due to doubts about their structural integrity. Hopefully some day the fence can be removed!

If you would like to learn more about the Quincy Smelter, click the link below this paragraph! It will bring you to a site called Copper Country Explorer, one of my favorite websites! Such good information and so fascinating!

We traveled from our home state of Wisconsin to the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan and an area waaayyy at the top of the state known as The Copper Country (A.K.A my favorite place in the world).

Major landmarks we visited include the Quincy Smelter, Quincy Mine, Ahmeek Stamp Mill, and Fort Wilkins! Along the way we saw Eagle Harbor Lighthouse and two waterfalls!

I saw something for smooshed potatoes the other day on Facebook and here's my version... Smooshing potatoes is a skill set apparently one has to master...
