Blastin'.


Loadin'.


Rippin'.


Scrapin'.

I forgot about this place:


"Dusty in the desert".

Anyone else have something to share?

It's taconite, so it's not dirt...but at least it fits the heavy part of the title.













Anyone... Anyone want to help turn this ship around tonight? Anyone...

I hope this qualifies:
I have been seeing several loads of Cat mining dumptrucks heading west on I-10(of course I didn't have my camera, but now I try to keep it on me all the time Wink ). My wife laughed at me when I spotted the chasis from a dumper of what I took to be Liebherr gray. (she never noticed what I found). Who would run Liebherr mining dumper in the US?

1:1 or 1:50, I am still in awe.
