CHASSELL -- Michigan Nature Association will host a snowshoe hike beginning at 1 p.m. TOMORROW, Saturday, Jan. 11, at River Bend NS.
Join stewards Gwen and Mike Stockwell for a snowshoe hike to a rarely visited sanctuary in Houghton County. The group will hike out through the woods to the picturesque bend in the Otter River and back. Please bring your own snowshoes, snacks and water. Mike notes that hikers will be traversing CFA land that is currently being harvested. It may be necessary to carry your snowshoes part of the way or to bushwhack around any processing underway.
