The image shows a historic mining headframe in Butte, Montana. These structures were essential to the city's rich copper mining history, serving as a system to raise and lower equipment and miners into the underground shafts. The word "BUTTE" is prominently displayed on an adjacent structure, clearly identifying the location.

For #WeldedWednesday (yep, made that up too!), this is the Trevona Headframe. Headframes raise and lower equipment and miners into the underground shafts.

If I could only remember what town this was in.
