The Conveyor Belt

This industrial behemoth winds from the mines down to the warehouse at the docks. At one time, minerals would be dumped onto the belt and transported below to a holding area at the port for processing and eventually offloading onto a ship. The rubber of the belt remains intact in most places without much fraying or snapping. The installation follows the topography, at times climbing at a steep gradient and at times virtually flat for hundreds of feet.

A number of skinny, precarious step ladders are built into the belt at regular intervals, none of which have anything approaching the shape of a guard rail, and are the primary means of entry. The catwalks are in poor condition, and there is little to stop someone from falling if they lose their step on the icy, rusted metal.
