Last winter Lake Michigan wasn’t completely ice free until sometime in June I believe.

In Marquette, MI for Memorial day weekend last year and the ice chunks were a floating around where the boats were supposed to be in the slips. look off over the Lake and could see the Ice Bergs in the Water.
hey in january and February last year I was in St. Ignace and the snowmobilers were transporting lumber across the frozen Mackinac straits to Mackinac Island where they were building a new hotel. The trail was marked with Christmas trees to allow for safe travel. I thought it was pretty cool. I will be in St. Ignace again on March 16, will remember the camera
That's right. And we had practically no spring and a very short summer - the trees didn't bud until late May, and then the leaves started turning early in September.
