Wrangell St-Elias mountains : Bremner mining site (Alaska)


Xavier Carré

Recommended Posts

Hello,


 


Here are some screenshots of  "Wrangell St-Elias mountains" project dedicated to OrbX SAK.


 


This is the Bremner mining site, which includes two airstrips and many buildings from the 1930's.


Gold was discovered here in 1902 and 4 gold mines were exploited until 1940's.


 


Please, note that this is a WIP.
