On a bright autumn day in 1982, the forested Keweenaw Peninsula rises above the deep trench of the Portage Lake channel. The historic downtowns of Houghton (left) and Hancock stand at opposite ends of the bridge. The Michigan Technological University campus dominates eastern Hough-ton (foreground). Suomi College (Finnish Lutheran Synod) and medical facilities are other major buildings. Quincy Hill rises above the old smelter site east of Hancock (extreme right).
