Recent Snowstorm Spurs Snowmobile Season

Legs In Snow BankThirty inches of snow will make life hard on anyone, but as usual the Copper Country finds a way to make the best of it.

Since the season’s biggest storm struck the U.P. ten days ago, snowmobilers have begun to flock to the area.

The winter tourism season had been somewhat sluggish as the new year began, which had many local businesses concerned.

That’s Dianne St. Amour, the manager of the AmericInn in Calumet.

She says they have seen a boost of roughly fifty percent since the storm–mostly from snowmobilers.

And businesses should be able to continue to reap the benefits that the snow brings for the next couple months–unless, of course, it melts.
