    the Big Fitz 46 Years Later

    Thanks for posting. I live in Duluth and when the wind is really blowing in off the water, I often wonder (and comment to my wife) what it would be like to be out on the big lake during a big blow. The museum at Whitefish Point is amazing. Very sombering. Also, the Valley Camp ship museum...

    12 Feet of Snow in 48 hours

    Has anyone seen any snowfall reports from Alaska? I saw one news article that said it is "likely" that over 10 feet has fallen in the mountains, but I'm not sure how accurate that is.

    12 Feet of Snow in 48 hours

    That's crazy! I followed one of the links in the story you referred to and saw that Michigan's 3-day snowfall record is 60.0 inches (assuming I read the chart properly). That's pretty crazy, too.

    Nice pics! What a coincidence in that about two hours ago I was watching a Youtube video of someone climbing Timm's hill.

    Lake Superior/Kinross UFO incident?

    Good morning. I remember reading out this story in a book several years ago, but it popped into my head again today, completely out of the blue: https://www.history.com/news/ufo-fighter-jet-disappears-over-lake-superior-kinross-incident Has anyone else heard about this? What do you think?

    Have you heard of the lost "Wall of Silver" mine in the Keweenaw?

    I was watching a TV show this evening and they mentioned the lost "Wall of Silver" mine in Michigan. This website discussion suggests it may be near Phoenix, MI. http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/treasure-legends-michigan/111596-tale-wall-silver-mine-up-keweenaw.html I love a good lost...

    Is there anywhere in the UP where natural snow lasts until July?

    On my morning jog, I sometimes ponder the heavy things in life. I seem to recall some pictures posted on this forum several years ago showing John and others riding in early June on a few patches of snow way up high on the spine of the Keweenaw. Did this happen or am I completely...

    Question about snowmobiling at night.

    Hi everyone. First, I'm not a snowmobiler, so this might be a silly question. I'm simply a snow lover and I visit this site to learn more about weather and general goings-on in northern WI and the UP. I really enjoy going for a drive in the middle of the night, say 2-3am or so. I find it...

    We got about 2.5 to 3" of damp, heavy snow overnight in Iron River, WI. It started to snow again about an hour ago, but there is not really any new accumulation yet. I hope the big one comes later this week!

    Interactive hour-by-hour retelling of Edmund Fitzgerald's final voyage

    Hello. Tomorrow is the 45th anniversary of the Fitz going down, so I was looking up some information on her final voyage. I stumbled across this NOAA website, which I found interesting. There is nothing particularly new here, but I like the way the information is presented. You may (or may...

    Change oil in new push mower after one use?

    Hello. (If this post isn't a fit for this message board, please feel free to delete!) I purchased a new Honda push mower and plan to use it for the first time this weekend to chew up leaves. This will be the only time I will use it this year. Should the oil be changed before I use the mower...

    How much snow did Ironwood get this morning/overnight?

    Hello. My brother sent me a pic from someone's deck in Ironwood showing a light coating of snow, and it appeared to still be snowing. I'm curious if anyone knows how much snow they (or other places in the UP) got? Thanks.

    Have you seen live (in-person) ski jumping at Copper Peak (north of Ironwood)?

    Hello. Our 10-year anniversary was Friday, so my wife and I took a day trip to the Ironwood area. We had a picnic lunch at Black River Harbor (cool place!) and also went to the very top of the Copper Peak ski jump. It was pretty windy, so the jump was definitely swaying a bit. I was pretty...
