Here is your TGIF super duper Yooper Sunrise from the northwest corner of Lake Michigan and it's the first Sunrise we've had all week up here. It's been overcast. #906Life #PureMichigan
One more from today’s hike. Showing off those tannins that give this beauty its root beer nickname. #906Life

People have asked if I'm ever concerned about ice flows being that I live here on Lake Michigan, but the Northwest corner of Lake Michigan is quite shallow and doesn't break for a ways offshore and that's where the ice flows get stopped. #906Life #puremichigan
There's a couple of trumpeter swans hanging out here this morning with the Canada geese on the northwest corner of Lake Michigan. #906Life #puremichigan #birds 🐦

Facebook Post: Delta County Road Commission 3h · ⚠❗STORM UPDATE 3/18/26 ❗⚠ Our crew is still out there working hard to open everything up. We have not been able to open every county road yet. Some roads have snow drifting that even our plow trucks cannot tackle. We are needing to use our larger equipment to bust through some of these roads which is making this clean up job an even longer task. We have equipment getting stuck and hung up constantly, it is not an easy job. We want the public to know that we have not forgot about you and we are still working hard to get into everything as fast as we can. Roads may only have one pass through, enough to get people in and out. We will need to come back to widen them out and knock the banks back. We understand the anxiety, stress and frustration the public is feeling right now, but we ask that you please try to remain patient and try to be kind to the people answering the phone calls that do not stop. We will do our best to try and help in any way we can. Remember if you have an emergency please call 911 and your call will be directed to the appropriate people.
We got slammed pretty bad here with snow and the county road commission is struggling to reopen county roads while the state roads are still snowpacked or very slushy. #906Life #PureMichigan
After Blizzard Elsa (March 17, 2026) #photography #escanaba #puremichigan #yooper #906life #blizzard2026 #elsa
The wind was blowing so hard during our recent blizzard that it coated the 40-ft limestone cliffs across the bay from me with snow. That is the Stonington Peninsula here on Northwest Lake Michigan. #906Life #PureMichigan
A small John Deere tractor removing a lot of snow.
The John Deere tractor looks tiny against the mountain of new snow
A solid 3-4 foot drift across the width of my driveway.
Now with the wind finally having died down the cleanup can comment to get ready for the next winter storm in 2 days. #906Life #PureMichigan
A huge drift of snow outside of a door. The snow almost reaches the roof of the house. The area around the door is shoveled out
I ran 28km today. My longest ever treadmill run.
I was stuck inside because we’re in a historic blizzard: over 3 ft of snow so far! But at least I got to eat cupcakes for running fuel.

Just saw two Delta County MI sheriffs dept. 4 wheel drive trucks heading south on M35 on an unplowed highway. Not sure where they are going, there is nothing for 40 miles south of me and drifting snow is piling up over the highway. www.uppermichiganssource.com/2026/03/16/c... #906Life #puremichigan

Unbelievable, but right after the blizzard cleared out of here, a bunch of robins started showing up, the first ones I've seen this year. #906Life #puremichigan 🐦 #birds
