Information

Houghton County was home to extensive mining activities for over 100 years. The legacy of that activity is numerous abandoned mine shafts throughout the County, many of which may be unknown and unmarked. Should you encounter such a site, be extremely careful, and report your findings to the Houghton County Mining Inspector. Click here for more information regarding abandoned mines.
