The Keweenaw in the grips of WINTER!

January 2008

Lobster Mike, JR and myself spent a few days at Eagle River Inn enjoying winter like it's not been seen too often as of late!  Single digit highs...WINDY....18" to 30" of snow...all that led to terrific trails and AWESOME off trail powder!  Click on any image below to see a larger view!!

JR found "his" beer!

The sleds were parked for about an hour!

Mike preparing for more...

This PIC was taken 15 minutes later...

What would a trip be without Mike ventureing to the local ER....and then to the local pharmacy!

A VERY chilly scene!

Trails were awesome...

The whiteout in front of Eagle River Inn!
