[ Join Us for the Snowshoe Hare, January 27, 2024 ]
The Snowshoe Hare at the Keweenaw Mountain Lodge is an event celebrating snowshoeing in the Keweenaw. The inaugural event was in 2022.
This event has an educational component to it where attendees learn about: snowshoeing, comparisons between modern snowshoes with traditional snowshoes (demonstration models provided by Iverson Snowshoes), and about snowshoe hares and their ecology.
For the novice snowshoers – learn what snowshoes are, the different types of snowshoes, snowshoe history, how to put them on, and how to use them. For more advanced snowshoers, try out and compare traditional and modern snowshoes.
Snowshoe Activities:
-
- Access to over 14 km of groomed and packed trails for snowshoeing
- Guided snowshoe hikes
- Interpretive snowshoe talks
- A guided moonlit snowshoe hike on the lodge’s trail system
