    Dog sled team hit by Snowmobiler in Bayfield WI

    This is about 2 miles from where I'm sitting right now. I suspect the musher was training for the Northern Pines Sled Dog race coming up on February 19? I'm on this section of the Tri-county Corridor a lot and occasionally see a sled dog team. I wish the victims the best. Wow.

    Dobe, thanks for sharing. I live in Duluth and have a cabin near Iron River. I'm heading out there tonight to shovel. Enjoy your weekend!

    1/5, Douglas/Bayfield Counties, WI

    Looking like some good snow reports coming in. Lake Nebagamon reporting 18", Blueberry reporting 15" (about 12 miles west of Iron River), and Cornucopia/Bayfield area reporting 15". I think it's still snowing, too.

    10 feet

    I was thinking about this thread and was curious how much snow the area got, so I did a bit of googling. Northstar at Tahoe (a ski resort on the north side of Lake Tahoe) got 117" of snow Xmas week. Also, the UC-Berkeley Central Sierra Snow Lab on Donner Pass (just west of Lake Tahoe) received...

    I would guess about 7" or so here in Iron River, WI. I see the Brainerd, MN got a good amount, about 15-18".

    20.1 inches just outside of Grand Marais, MN. I wish we had that down here in Duluth!

    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...
