want to warm up by a crackling fire before hitting the trail for another
run. Also, be sure to stop into the Visitor Center's warming room.

Where: |
Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park
|
What: |
Every Saturday in February (1st, 8th, 15th & 22nd), 6:30 PM - 09:00 PM.
Nearly 80 Old-fashioned kerosene lanterns illuminate a 1-mile trail
for a unique and memorable experience. The ski trail is track-set for
classic skiers while snowshoers make their own trail adjacent to the
lighted loop. Stop about halfway around the loop at the warming shelter
where the park naturalist will have a campfire going and provide some
refreshments. The ski trail has an “easy” difficulty rating; however,
skiing or snowshoeing at night is always a challenge. The lanterns are
on the Superior Trail immediately across the street from the ski hill
entrance.
