Poor Rock Abbey trails near Eagle Harbor

 Today we ventured up the Keweenaw to the Poor Rock Abbey trails near Eagle Harbor MI. The Abbey is on the lake shore whereas the mine and trails are part way up the bluff. The mine ruins are from the Arnold Mine which was ran in around 1860 to 63.

Parking on the shoulder was no problem.

The Abbey's cross.

It was about 60 degrees today.

And my little paws were falling through!


Creek is up.

The Arnold mine ruins.

What she doing back there?

We hiked up to the big picnic table.

OK let's head to the gorge!

Oof, lotsa post-holing today.

More post-holing. Some people had been out
without snowshoes and falling in over 1ft deep.

This is near the poor rock and stamp sand pile.

That hill is the poor rock/stamp sand pile.

Cascade along Jacob's Creek.


Tea time!

I don't mind sitting on these benches.

Time for a good roll!
We had such a nice romp here today.
