The preserved remains of four charcoal kilns can be viewed on a self-guided tour after a 5-mile drive on a gravel road in Lemhi County, Idaho. The brick kilns were used to turn timber into charcoal, which powered a smelter in Nicholia, across the Birch Creek Valley, to process lead and silver from the Viola Mine. The kilns are now part of the Caribou-Targhee National Forest. (© 2020 Cindi Christie/Cyanpixel)
