Winter in the North
Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula is almost an island in the middle of Lake Superior. The Great Lake has a hand in many aspects of our lives, and most importantly our weather. The lake keeps us moderate in summer, but in winter the warmer waters feed enormous lake-effect snow storms which dump an average of over 200 inches of snow between October and April.
My Explorations
The Keweenaw's empty wildernesses provide a perfect place to wander about on snowshoes. It's possible to find yourself standing under towering pines, standing on snow totally untouched by humans, covered only with trees and drifts of blown snow. Winter brings out colors and shapes hard to find in summer, and emphasizes beautiful lines and colors.
