Michigan's got the POW at Mount Bohemia!

Michigan Midwest Powder Mecca at Mount Bohemia

by Backcountry Planet September 25, 2014

This video is about Mount Bohemia which is located in the northernmost part of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Mount Bohemia has the longest runs with the highest vertical and deepest powder in the Midwest. This hidden secret is a true treasure for backcountry skiers and riders. The average snowfall in Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula is 273 inches. The lake effect snow is dry similar to western resorts and accumulates as powder which is untouched because they do not groom.
