YEH, it's chilly frozen WET cold up there......I remember a summer trip with family some 60+ years ago.....to the Mesabi Iron Range.....talk about a Grand Canyon size ditch!!!! trucks and cranes looked SO small on the bottom as we looked over the edge.......and the iron train paralleling the road up there to the mountain top where the ditch was.......and us stopping for gas on left side of the two lane road.....on the right was this RR track going down hill of course....and a row of trees between us and the track......and so the ground starts shaking we looking around thinking earthquake and the attendant was laughing, saying it was the ORE train....that passed by at about 100 mph or so......LONG train full of rusted out iron heading to the furnaces to make cars/etc......

No, not from any trip done over 60 years ago....BUT, that last name sounds familiar, from some time ago....may have been a customer, maybe a client for one job I had.....I was a TV man for 15 years, then engineering field work and prototype dev. work in the lab......then went into home remodeling.....
