Ah-Gwah-Ching is a sprawling, 175-acre campus on rolling hills near the south shore of Leech Lake. There are 16 buildings on the site, though many have been mothballed. The main facility, pictured above, houses about 100 mentally ill patients. State officials want to shut down the facility, saying it's too expensive to operate. (MPR Photo/Tom Robertson)
