Are these all privately owed snowcats? Neat pictures. Jon

Yes, few cities or states would run something that old with that high of maintenance and frequent break downs.

Thanks for sharing all the cat photos from the Clowder; they bring back great memories of them in the UP, (friend's grandparents had a big piece of property up near you somewhere (too little to have paid attention to the drive)) and later of cats grooming slopes after storms or snowmaking. Great fun!

All the best,

Peter

How is the ice surface in terms of smoothness? Bare, smooth ice? Crusty? Snow covered?

All the best, Peter

Its usually quite rough what we can see.

With snow shut down, the city boys came by this am and cleaned the snow storage out on our street!

As a fellow Michigander, but from the LP, I've always admired the residents of the UP (Yoopers). My daughter in law is from Marquette.

Bring on the pictures.

Are you a follower of johndee.com? I enjoy his blog on the Keweenaw.

I case your didn't hear, John passed. He had a heart condition that he struggled with for some time.

Snow in storage areas now gone!

Driving along Kewee bay late today, ice looked poor. Folks still out there fishing.

Snowing and blowing like nuts here today.

I just got in after plowing the collage gals drives. Did some of ours on the way out and I'm soaking wet, so wet its like having water poured on you. Wind and and low visibility out there. My camera got wet (like me) but I will post photos later..
