Porcupine Mountains Lantern-lit Ski / Snowshoe

Date: Sat, Feb 22, 2014
Time: 6:30 PM
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.
