WYOMING

Mysterious and obscure coal camp in western Wyoming County, operated in it's later years by Island Creek Coal Company. Curt Warner, running back through the 1980s for the Seattle Seahawks, was from here.

These coal camp houses for the miners contrast sharply with the foremen's homes pictured below.

These company-built homes have been modernized and kept up.

This building has been identified as the Island Creek company store at Wyoming. The mud is from the great flood of July 8, 2001.
