Derrick Larr and Madison Gardner head to the Upper Peninsula for a winter adventure!
Sometimes we forget how lucky we are to call ourselves Michiganders – especially during the long, winter months. Chief Photojournalist Derrick Larr and I were quickly reminded how lucky we truly are when we went to the Upper Peninsula on assignment to meet some awesome people and learn new things – like how to ice climb, how ice caves are formed, what an antique snowmobile is and how to navigate without using Google maps! I would encourage anyone and everyone to visit the Upper Peninsula, not only in the summer months but in the winter months when the snow goes above your knees!
