A blustry sub-zero day to cross the gateway to God's country, Michigan's Upper Peninsula.

High up in the Keweenaw skies, the sun teams up with icy air to spread a glow from above.

Winter in the U.P. is a time of outdoor fun for all ages, even the littlest snow enthusiasts get in the act.

During winter months, the sky and Lake Superior take on numerous hues of blue.

Take a peek at a creature that makes its home UP North, finding dinner wherever he may.

In the still of the winter daylight, this Upper Peninsula pond takes on a chilling look.

Another Winter Carnival comes down the finish line... like this Shoebox Memory from 1963.
