Every year, individuals who used to work or live in the mining town of Stibnite get together to share stories and reminisce about what it was like during the mine’s old heyday. This year, the Stibniter’s Reunion was held at Ponderosa State Park in McCall .
Hearing the stories of Stibniter’s about what the site used to be like is a remarkable experience. However, this year, we actually got to see what it was like thanks to some recently found photos of Stibnite from the late 1940’s and early 1950’s. The photos were found by Craig and Linda DeMoss. Ed DeMoss, was a manager for the Bradley Mining Company. You can see some of our favorite photos from their family collection below.
