The groomers are silent now, though we had a dusting of snow this morning.  These are parked just off the trails behind the Phoenix Store.

back in January we showed you one in action

Sunshine continues (what happened to the snow forecast?) A lone yooper walks along the canal pointing out the chucks of ice which remain.

Snow's all gone on US 41 up Quincy Hill.  We catch a glimpse of a landmark which has been requested by several viewers. 

Just beyond that car ahead is the turnout which looks down on the Portage Canal

Breaker wall where the Portage meets Lake Superior.  Waves form an icy glaze on these chilly mornings... There's even a rumor of some snow in the forecast for later in the week.

On the shady side of Cliff Drive there's still a big snowbank.  Some wag hung a dairy feed bag on this "snow stick"... after the deer had a feast.  They've really disappeared into the woods the past few days. The deer, not the wags

Drivers depend on these sticks to guide the snow plows.  Soon they'll all come down.

Jacobs Falls between Eagle River and Eagle Harbor has been requested by several viewers.  This spot is right next door to the Jampot, operated by the Society of St. John Monastery.  Melting snow provides quite a rush today, but will slow to a trickle by the time black flies arrive.

This is a colorful spot in the fall.
