It's a cool old historic area.
Diesel Kinevil and I rode up there from Iron Mountain for something to do.We were picking up a truck something,I don't recall now.
Point is,it was winter and the lake was frozen over.There were fishing shacks as far as you could see out on the ice.

It gets cold and snows up there??

Thanks for the info everyone, looks like a nice place. I'm probably only going to be there a couple weeks, hope to have some free time to explore..

Yes, it does. Usually, it doesn't happen though till the end of October.

So, given that information, you should be good.

That ROLF smiley at the end of the sentence makes me wonder about the snow not happening until the end of October.

So I guess you guys are saying I should take a jacket, I might run into Red Green, and my motel won't be far from the Possum Lodge.

No, it usually doesn't snow quite that early there. However, I love to watch people sweat about the cooler climate up there. Yes, a light and/or medium weight jacket might be appropriate. You could have anything from 40-80 degrees there in the middle of September.

I just enjoy ribbing people who do not like the cold.
