The clouds converge on Hatcher Pass and the abandoned Independence Gold Mine. At its peak in 1941, Independence Mine produced 34,416 ounces of gold worth $1,204,560 ($17,208,000 today). In 1951 the mine was closed. In the late 1970s, 271 acres of land were designated Independence Mine State Historical Park.
