Hanna
1889:
​Workers spent their time in Hanna developing the No. 1 and No. 2 mines and building the town. Living conditions in Hanna during the winter of 1889 were difficult. The workers lived in tents and were exposed to the winter weather with little protection from Wyoming's cold and windy conditions. (Wyoming State Archives Dept. of State Parks and Cultural Resources)
