Hibbing

Hibbing combines a working mining legacy with a residential northern Minnesota character in a way that reflects its position on the Mesabi Iron Range. Iron ore shaped the community so decisively that much of the town was moved south in 1919 to allow expansion of the Hull-Rust-Mahoning open-pit mine. The mine remains a defining mark on the local terrain. Hibbing also holds an important place in US transport history: Carl Wickman began the bus service that became Greyhound here in 1914. Music fans know it as the town where Bob Dylan spent his formative years. Trace Hibbing's place across Minnesota's Iron Range by browsing webcams nearby.
