Brenda Leigh is at it again, heading out on another adventure, this time with a number of "girl" friends. The gals decided to set off on snowshoes to find a Mystery Cabin, located north of Negaunee, which none of them had been to before, so they relied on their trusty GPS and a map. It took them three hours, with a number of hills to climb along their journey, but it also yielded quite the beautiful views en route, too. The third photo is what the hikers saw as they spotted the cabin across the lake and up on the right cliff. Brenda said it was quite beautiful to behold with the lake surrounded by high bluffs, and everything so pristine and untouched, not a track in sight. They made their way across the lake and with one last climb up to the cabin, they had reached their destination....the Mystery Cabin. I'm not sure if that's what it's really called or if that's a name Brenda and her crew gave it, but a mystery it is, because she said it's just open and it appears that many people use it. There's even a sign inside, where the woodpile gets stacked, that tells folks, "If you burn it, you must replace it," and someone added, "Says who?" The gals didn't light a fire, even though there were two stoves. Guess they had worked up enough of a sweat making several climbs along the route to get there. That last shot today, is the group of snowshoers on their return journey. It took them across a different lake and only 1 ½ hours to get back to the camp they were staying at for the weekend. I bet they all slept well that evening. :->

HAMMER IT HOME TEAM PASTY!!! Awesome job!

Great pics!

Lucky "girls"...having a grand time!

Love this story (and the pictures)!

These are real great pictures today of what one can see if they get off the normal highway routes. We used to camp/specky fish down on the Baraga Plains at the "Rat Shack" that was similar in design to todays cabin. We always used the boy scout rule of leaving the place nicer than we found it.

Those girls have to be in great shape to make a trek like that. What a wonderful adventure! I really envy them being able to discover beautiful spots like that. Go girls!:)

BEAUTIFUL PICTURES, AND I WAS WONDERING IF THE LAKE MENTIONED WAS TEAL LAKE. I KNOW THERE WAS A BLUFF CALLED TEAL LAKE BLUFF. ANYONE KNOW. HAVE A GREAT DAY EVERYONE.

How beautiful. And a much better time of year to go than during tick or mosquito season!

Fun story and pictures! I love living vicariously through you all UP there (from down here in Florida). Of course, I'd rather be there myself!

Go Copper Country Humane Society!

I voted for the CC Humane Society!

Please vote! It only takes a second.

I got my vote in Donna. I have relatives who have had well loved
pets from that organization.

the irish have a little different way of expressing thenselves sometimes fully welcomed simply means welcomed for what they are please read the current issue of national geographic on wolves i hope they are not a problem as they are in the western states where they are killing livestock ect. i hopes that helps sisugirl

Thanks for the votes everyone!!! Isn't it wonderful to watch those numbers going up? Number 1 in the ENTIRE state of Michigan, and number 9 OVERALL!!!!

Pasty Magic! heehee And we are all a part of that!

My best guess is Lake 8. I've never been there, but looking at the topos--Lake 8 seems to match the unique shape of the lake in the picture.

Mimi and I are happy to be a part of the Pasty Magic. Been voting for CCHS since it was first mentioned here. :o)

These pictures actually made me cry! Wow, I really miss those views, and the feeling of utter peace. Truly amazing. What a unique place. Utterly gorgeous.
