Getting Ready...

This is American Rock Salt's mine in Mt Morris, NY. This production shaft is
over 1400 feet deep. The mine produces over 3 million tons of de-icing salt.
If your area uses salt on the roads in Winter, there's a good chance it came from here.
For those of you who have Facebook, a local "newsman/photographer" took
a video over the mine and it can be found on his Sept 17 post.

Wow! That is very cool and a heck of a lot of salt. I like your POV on this.

Another day at the salt mine. Nicely made with the foreground lines and those light poles add some scale.The moon sitting over all is nice touch!

Impressive pile of salt. I wonder if it's used here in Washington state.
