1999 Mining Competition Photos Part 2

During the Blizzard.-- Students, Judges, and Onlookers braved the inclement weather in the morning. However, shortly after these pictures were taken, the competition was postponed and everyone retired to a warm place to wait out the weather and regroup. Luckily, things improved and the competition started up again in the afternnon and was just completed in time by dusk. A noble effort by all concerned.
