Historic Ironwood Michigan Depot Museum
Made to Michigan State Line Check out the old museum and drive through the old downtown of an old mining town Ironwood, Michigan was settled in 1885 and incorporated as a city in 1889.
The city was named after James Wood. The discovery of iron ore mines in the late 19th century led to the establishment of Ironwood. The city's population grew from 7,745 in 1890 to 15,739 in 1920. The last iron ore mine in Ironwood closed in 1966.
The Gogebic Range was once home to a thriving deep-shaft iron mining industry. Iron mining peaked in 1920 and ended in 1967. Many miners moved to work in copper mines in Ontonagon County. Most of those mines closed by the mid-1990s.
The Ironwood Area Historical Society works to preserve the history of Ironwood. The society uses collections, archival research, and community outreach to pass on the Ironwood story to future generations

The UP in Michigan is gorgeous. The western part of full of mountains and mines. Perfect time to the UP before the snows starts, the UP gets a ton of snow.

Back before I was born in the 1930’s, my grandparents who ran a tourist camp and general store in western Maryland aided a young couple from Ironwood. And got them supplied and on their way. It was during the Great Depression and these dear folks had no resources. When they got home, they wrote such a wonderful letter to my grandparents and the correspondence continued even with my Mom. Kindness has its rewards indeed. Thanks for visiting Ironwood.

Hi Russ! Your wonderful video of Ironwood brought back so many memories. I spent 22 winters there testing winter tire performance for Goodyear, out of Akron Ohio; we had a test area at the local airport. The folks and businesses in the Ironwood area were just wonderful and a total pleasure to work with and know. I considered myself a part time Yooper. Thanks again for the superb video!

Back when I was in OTR driver I made a delivery up into Marquette, MI. I liked what I saw of the UP on that trip. The UP is my favorite part of Michigan. Marquette seemed like a nice town to me.

@mariedarin507 9 месяцев назад

You missed the murals on the building. Miners that worked those iron ore mines through the yrs. The real history of that area. Plus the logging. I cried when I saw the building where Michigan Bell was. I worked there back in 1958.

@mariedarin507 9 месяцев назад

Within a few miles was the shores of Lake Superior. The statue of Hiawatha.

Wow - a Ben Franklin store! We had one in my home town in Vermont, and I think it went out of business maybe 35 years ago.

I agree, the little local museums are great - thank you foe stopping. This one was interesting to learn about the immigrants that came from Italy and Finland.

Hey Russ, good to be riding with you again in the Great Lakes region. There's a really nice end-of-summer vibe going on in those lakeside towns with the flags and and street side flower boxes. . One thing I watched for when you crossed the state line was the condition of the road. On my recent road trip in the area, Michigan's roads in general were the worst. Not super horrible, but I drove many miles where I had to turn up my radio so I could hear it over the "thump thump thump" of the repair patches and expansion joints. I guess it's to be expected considering the winter weather. I got confused with the time zone changes there too--almost missed an appointment but luckily I'm always early 🙂.

@philoyler4522 9 месяцев назад

Hey Brother Russell you are doing a fantastic job and thank you so much enjoying the road trip feed stores out here where I live or cold Walmart God bless

@jayshaw63 7 месяцев назад

Russ, nice video. My late Mother-in-Law grew up in Ironwood in the 1930s. But, you blew right past Hurley, WI. A city with a population of only 1,560 people, but has 25 bars! It was a summer retreat for Chicago mobsters during prohibition. 😊

@mikearmstead8358 9 месяцев назад

You should drive East side of lower Michigan on your way through Michigan. Also Lake Superior is the youngest Lake out of the Great Lakes.

@MokkiLife 9 месяцев назад

That Museum is a Harvest Host…you could have camped there for the night!🤗 FYI Absolutely NO cell service in Copper Harbor! There is WiFi at the Chamber of Commerce and in the park surrounding it.

@tulatoiletandsepticllc81 8 месяцев назад

This just popped up on my feed. At about the 12:45 mark just after you left the MI Welcome Center. My pump truck, the bobber, passes you. As you were pulling out of the WC I was pulling out of the treatment plant. Across from the WC is the city run RV/camping park. I am watching this trying to tell you which way to go LoL. While the depot is nice. You missed the real jem, the Memorial building and of course Hiawatha. Nice to see a different perspective.

@lanceeastridge5646 9 месяцев назад

Hey Russ I’m in Quartzsite sorry I missed bug on my way to Texas with the grandkids they all say hello and ask RV there yet lol will see you in Oct for sure travel well my friend take care lance and family

@KRich408 9 месяцев назад

I don't know if it's an Omen or a blessing? You flew your drone over my camper in quartzite this last winter , when it was getting the solar installed at Solar Bills, now you're in the Town I just purchased a home in! I was looking for videos of Ironwood right after I submitted my purchase agreement in Ironwood. And your video came up. What's the chance of that?😮❔❓ I decided to end full-time RVing and wound up here. And I just watched you drive past the house??? Bizarre 😮

@markbajek2541 9 месяцев назад

IF you want to take a break from the RV there's a rental in Negaunee called Union Station and you can rent out the entire train depot for the night , couple of bedrooms huge dining area , kitchen . a bit echoey because the floors are concrete so it's similar to staying in a garage. but it's really a nice joint if the weather cooperates. Theres a laundromat up the street that has a sign in the window "NO Mining clothes".... so don't bring your mining clothes. You can overnight at most MDOT rest areas..the one near Detroit on 275 the cops will kick you out because of the drug and prostitution trade and the one in on EB I96 west of grand rapids is just loaded with people overnighting in cars, so much so sometimes you can't find a spot to take a 1 or a 2.
