I take a walk through the old Nordegg Mining camp. It's 30 minutes of me wandering around. Not the most exciting thing to watch, but there is some amazing scenery.
The Frank Slide Disaster | Crowsnest Pass, Alberta, Canada
The Frank Slide disaster was a rock slide that buried part of the mining town of Frank, Alberta, Canada on April 29, 1903. Around 110 million tonnes of limestone rock slid down Turtle Mountain. It was one of the largest landslides in Canadian history and remains the deadliest, as between 70 and 90 of the town's residents were killed, most of whom remain buried in the rubble.
Multiple factors led to the slide: Turtle Mountain's formation left it in a constant state of instability. Coal mining operations may have weakened the mountain's internal structure, as did a wet winter and cold snap on the night of the disaster.

Drumheller 2011 part 6 Atlas Coal Mine
I looked at the displays, rode the mine train, and went on the tunnel and tipple tours. The tipple is the large wooden structure used to sort coal and load it into train cars. The tunnel tour is in the tunnel they used to bring the coal down from the mine, not in the mine itself. They hope to offer tours in the actual mine in the future. The Atlas No. 3 Coal Mine was operational from 1936 to 1956.
