| Our thoughts are with those affected by the tornado in Oklahoma today. | | | Mon, 20 May, 2013 | | The hoist cable is 1000’ long and is x-rayed every 6 months for wear. | | | Mon, 20 May, 2013 | | When you get off the hoist underground, you'll be in what is called, "The Narrows." The corridor was a solid chunk of salt blasted open for the museum. Be sure and check out the miners names written on the wall from the day they blasted. | | | Sun, 19 May, 2013 | | During its first years of operation, Carey Salt Company offered tours, especially to school children. They stopped offering tours in the 1960s, and there was no public access to the salt mines until KUSM opened six years ago. | | | Sat, 18 May, 2013 | | Thinking ahead to Memorial Day? KUSM will be open on Monday, May 27 - Memorial Day - from 9-6 so come visit us! | | | Fri, 17 May, 2013 |
