Ishpeming is a historic mining city located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, United States. The city's name comes from the Ojibwe word meaning "high place" or "summit," reflecting its location in the rugged Marquette Iron Range. Founded in the 1850s during the region's iron ore mining boom, Ishpeming played a crucial role in America's industrial development.
The city is notably recognized as the birthplace of organized skiing in the United States, with the National Ski Hall of Fame located here. Beyond its mining heritage, Ishpeming maintains a rich cultural identity shaped by the diverse European immigrants who came to work in the mines, particularly Finnish, Italian, and Cornish settlers. Today, while mining activities have decreased, the city preserves its historical character through various heritage sites and cultural institutions.
