It began a web surfing experience that I share here.
- I found a lovely blog post by travel writer Lori Erickson written last year:
"Wyoming’s Heart Mountain, a WWII Internment Camp, Has Lessons for Today"
- Next, I found a fabulous photo collection of 2000 black and white images taken by internees at Heart Mountain, George and Frank Hirahara.
- The collection was eventually donated to Washington State University.
The Heart Mountain camp site was preserved and much improved over the years.
In 2011 it became the Heart Mountain Interpretive Center. You are invited to take the virtual tour.
