Dunes Hike in the Snow

Yesterday was an interesting weather day in Grand Marais.  In the morning we had on and off again lake effect snow.  Some of the snow was quite heavy, but the total accumulation was less than two inches.  In the afternoon the snow bands shifted and we had beautiful sunshine with big puffy clouds out over the lake.  My exercise partner, Lois Fite, and I parked at Sable Falls and headed into the dunes from there.

From the Sable Falls parking lot we hiked west across the foot bridge.


Then we went into the dunes and headed southwest....
