Description
Klepzig Mill
Just look at these boulders I had to climb around to get this photo. I flelt like I was going to fall at any moment. I protected my camera, for sure...
This small grist and sawmill is typical of dozens which dotted the region newr the turn of the century. Located along creeks and at large springs, most served only a few nearby farms in the same hollow. This mill was built before 1912. It was used to grind corn, saw logs into lumber, and in the 1940"s to generate electricity for the nearby farmstead.
