Missoula, MT: July 24, 2011

Mining for copper in Butte, MT.


A large Virgin Mary overlooking Butte. We had
seen two smaller ones on the way here.


The ecological disaster caused by the Anaconda copper
company. In the refining process arsenic is used. The waste
products were put in great piles, poisoning the streams
and land for miles.


A scene as we approached Missoula, MT
