Two Snowy Mornings: Late Fall Is Here in the Western UP

Two straight mornings of fresh snow, and the Keweenaw is starting to look like itself again. A light coat on the pines, a dusting on the dock, and the paddle boat is retired for the season.
Late fall up here is quiet, but it doesn’t last long. Deer season is in full swing this weekend, and hunters are settling into cabins across Houghton County. Snow season is right behind it, with snowmobile trails, Mont Ripley, Mount Bohemia and long cozy nights by the fire.
If you’re planning a hunting trip, a visit to MTU, or your first winter getaway, now’s the time to lock in your dates. Our cabins and lodges from Chassell to Twin Lakes put you close to the trails, the slopes and campus.
