When I was in high school I used to go to my buddy's family cabin on Lake Beauregard. I can't remember why now, but we always ended up in Solon Springs for a few hours each trip. Love being up north!
SNOW SUCKS!

Do you know where the Frog Creek substation is? Spent some time there working.

This Blizzard certainly didn’t affect everybody, but you’d have to be over 100 to remember anything like it where I live. It completely paralyzed our entire county.
I’m the Director of a Public Safety Department and sit on the Emergency Operation Center for Delta County.
The EOC was activated and coordinated several rescues due to the blizzard.
County plows cannot even move some of the snow in certain areas of the county. We still have roads that are not accessible and people have been stuck inside for days. I currently have a couple employees that can’t get to work because their roads are inaccessible.
We had to use snowmobiles, which also had a hard time, to get to elderly without power so we could relocate them….ongoing.
The Governor has issued a State of Emergency for Delta county, so hopefully we get extra resources.
Not complaining at all and I have to say I’m glad I’m around to witness this….lots of teamwork and resiliency.

Sorry, I do not. I have only had hunting land up there for a little over a year and don’t get up there as much as I would like.

Ditto.
And yes, I did walk a mile to or from school some days. In tennis shoes. Saved the boots for street hockey.

In the UP, Big Snow is a whole 'nother thing. We did have 150" back in 2022-23, but the UP is in a class by itself
