Stargazing on the Keweenaw is a year round activity. The lack of light pollution allows for clear views of the Milky Way, the moon and many of the planets in our solar system. The Keweenaw Mountain Lodge offers the free use of a telescope through our stargazer program. If you are staying at the Lodge you can check out a telescope for no additional charge. Just stop in the OAC or call (906) 289-4403 to reserve.

As the snow starts to fly autumn will soon be a distant memory. In a recent blog post on our website we look back to the Fall Color Photo Workshop that took place October 8-10. Here is an excerpt from the blog post: “Bad weather makes good photography,” is one of Ansel Adam’s more memorable quotes and one of the guidelines that we followed for the Keweenaw Mountain Lodge’s first annual Fall Color Photo Workshop. The idea for the workshop came together in September after the August Night Sky Photography workshop. The vision was for a team of photographers associated with the Keweenaw Mountain Lodge (KML) to put together a multi day photography workshop centered around the color season in late September – early October — a time of year that the Keweenaw is well-known to exhibit its beauty.” To read how the workshop went that weekend please check out our blog section under the about drop down on our website. #keweenaw #keweenawpeninsula #keweenawmountainlodge #fallcolors #upperpeninsulamichigan #upperpeninsula #photoworkshop #michiganfall #michiganfallcolors #midwestlife #midwestlivingmag #michigantravel #michiganphotographer #michiganphotography #michiganphotographers #lakesuperior #lakesuperiormagazine #lakesuperiorcircletour #puremichigan #yespuremichigan #yeskeweenawcvb #copperharbor
