Demolition continues from the shore working out the dock. View from the west.
The USGS Research vessel KIYI. In it's winter berth west of the ore dock.
Future winter berths are going to be much different without the protective wall of the ore dock. Protection from NE storms will be gone. The micro-climates resulting from the massive concrete heat sink will be gone. Additionally the camping area to the west of KIYI's berthing area will never be the same for the same reason. I believe that this micro-climate change will impact the entire community.

I can't imagine Ashland without that Oredock...and...you're absolutely right about the micro-climate it created which will no longer be there. I know it had to go but I'm deeply saddened and concerned by it.
