We took a trip with my parents to go see the Kennecot Copper mine just South of Salt Lake City. If you have never gone, i'd highly recomend going. It is the largest man made excavation in the world. It is 3/4's of a mile deep and over 3 miles wide. The mine is in operation 24 hours a day 365 days a year. The trucks hauling the material drive a combined 10000 miles everyday. As you can see in the pic of Easton standing next to one of the truck tires, they arent small. Just the tires alone stand 2 stories.
