This is on my right. Standing in the same place and turning my head you see the next two pics below. On those below pics is what is planned for this logging. Notice ALL the trees are still here? This is suppose to be logging independant of the mining operation. Its not suppose to be mine preparation. But in all the logging pics I show notice one thing--the loggers forgot to take the trees. All the logging I show is purely a matter of preparing the hillsides to mine.

KY Richline Mine 2

Now we're going to the 26 acre Ky Richline Mine 2

First we go up the Jellico Strip mine (Nikon 63-64) but we realize we're on the wrong seam - the KY Richline 1 mine is on the seam above (going up the side of the mountain), so we follow this seam to where it ends and the KY Richline Mine 2 will begin.

Nikon pics 65-73 show the KY Richline Mine 1. The Richline Mine 1 is being reclaimed. There are large boulders, and bare patches in the seeded areas.
