Because everybody loves to visit a ghost town, especially one as authentic and picturesque as this with its backdrop of whipped cream clouds and quaint streets meandering down to blue Keweenaw Bay, the oldest section of Pequaming village has been left in its picturesque natural state - for the special delight of artists and photographers.

These are some of the homes in Ripley not far from the old Burt Boiler Shop. The rock piles above the house tops show where prospectors endeavored to locate the Isle Royale veins on the north side of the lake. These diggings are immediately east of the Ripley Falls and are quite shallow. Even an adit was dug. It still exists although greatly filled with debris.

Pequaming is a quiet place these days. Few people visit the once active Hebbard and Ford sawmill site except on Sunday when motorists ribbon their way to the location for observation and retrospect. Only a few families live in the hamlet now. At one time over 64 houses were occupied with workers who were on the employment lists of either the Hebbard or Ford mill. One of the small frame grade school buildings has been removed from the hamlet. It now is being used at the Celotex site at LAnse. The other schools, three in number, still attest that Fords scheme of education was in vogue during the period his firm operated the mill. Pequaming is considered one of the more desirable scenic spots in the Upper Peninsula. The big mill site is under the Lawrence Walsh interest. The DesLaurier family still resides in the community.
