The view is looking south, and the time of day is mid morning. That's the old AN/FPS-27 search radar tower in the center. The shadow of the AN/FPS-26 height-finder radar tower's catwalk can be see at the far left (east) near the center.

Charlie Hopper, left, points out to Pete Haapala, Keweenaw Academy director of education, the antenna for wireless service that he and his son Jonathan, right, installed on the former radar tower on the Academy campus. The antenna, barely visible, is a small, curved structure just above Jonathan's head in the photo.
Pete Haapala, center, Keweenaw Academy director of education, poses with Charlie, left, and Jonathan Hopper of PastyNET just after installation of the antenna that will bring wireless Internet service to the Academy. Haapala said the wireless service will facilitate participation in distance learning through the Copper Country Intermediate School District (CCISD).
This view of the Keweenaw Academy buildings on Mt. Horace Greeley, one of the highest points in Keweenaw County, shows Lac La Belle in the distance (far right). The Academy is located near Gratiot Lake.
