I happened to be driving by the glacier this afternoon (April 11th) & took a quick drive by shot of it for those who may be interested. She is pretty thick. Keep in mind, this is after quite a few above average temperature days. Current temp is 49 degrees, temp on Sat is forecasted for the upper 50's to 60 with 40's & rain likely on Sun.

The official snow total for Keweenaw County for the winter of 24-25 ended up at 306.50". Third snowiest on record. Current forecast has LES possible for Tues April 15th, sure hope not, I feel broken.

This is now an official meltdown contest. Guesses will be accepted up to April 30th. The First person with the correct meltdown date will
win a copper UP art sculpture handcrafted and donated by m8man. Check out 906 Copper on facebook.

Wow third snowiest on record. I was thinking about this contest the other day. I came close a couple times but never won the cigar. I'll take May 25th.

FWIW, The initial post was just for a view of the infamous Laurium Glacier, not a contest. Though, if you wish to take a date for grins then so be it. As you know, the contest was John's thing, I just wanted to share the picture of it. My apologies if this was misleading. Note: It has been decided to make this a Meltdown Contest, you have until April 30th to get your date in. The First person to get the correct date will be the winner of a Copper UP art sculpture hand crafted & donated by m8man.

I hope to be back to the U.P the 1st weekend of May. Where exactly is the Larium glacier? I'd love to see it myself.

Sorry Hermie I already took May 25th in post #3. No special meaning to me. Is it special to you? I can pick another day if needed.
