Gets to see things many people can’t. Lucky for us he brought his camera.

Scroll to the bottom to see more from his Upper Peninsula travels, or here’s his main page.

Skate Report

Posted on January 18, 2015 by

Had some really, really nice skating ice for about 3 days. The clear, really smooth, just  thick enough to hold you yet flexible enough to creak alarmingly, kind of ice.

GPS kept acting up and losing satellite reception so I won’t bore you with the stats, but instead try to entertain you with the videos.

Took a couple photos too.
