Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 02/09
It’s ANOTHER blue sky day on the Keweenaw – and again very, very cold in Calumet this morning. Going to get worse before it gets better, again. Wind chill readings to 20 below the next couple of nights so bundle up, whether your’re out on the trails or viewing the statues.
Snow has been added to the snowmobile trails in Houghton and Hancock, so you can again get through town without burning up your tracks. More will be put down today too.
