On May 22, 2024, we were on our trip up to Copper Harbor. The road up to the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula is a “Scenic Drive”, which is apparently a code-word for “twisting through the woods and likely to cause motion-sickness”[1]. Sam and I are both kind of prone to motion-sickness, so partway up we needed to stop for a bit. And there was a little turnout for Aetna Creek which looked like a good spot.

We were walking down our road on July 18, 2024, when we noticed this plant with purple flowers groing in the rip-rap[1] that the road commission put in to stabilize the slope beside the road:
The plant was pretty big, here it is with Sam for scale (she is 5’2″ tall)

These grow just down the hill from our house, they are a sparse shrub that grows to maybe around 10-15 feet tall. On June 20,2024 they were blooming, so Sandy and I got some pictures of the blossom clusters.

When we went up to Lake Manganese on May 9, 2024 to collect some ore samples[1], we stopped off at Manganese Falls. This is right next to the road, but the only indication of it being there is the sign. Once we stopped, and walked a few feet through the obscuring vegetation, there was a rather abrupt cliff, with a wooden railing, and there were the falls.

This is far from being our only apple tree[2], but last year it was probably the most picturesque one.

Back on April 16, 2024 [1], I was strolling down the hill from our house to see how the snowmelt was proceeding. Some of it was kind of picturesque. Like this spot, where the creek comes out of the woods before it flows down beside the road.

(Most of this posting is about decomposing plants and mud. But, if you go all the way to the end, there is a butterfly picture as a reward)
Just down the hill from our house, there is a spot where the hill flattens out and catches water, making a bog. Cattails grow there. Right at the moment (May 13, 2024), the cattails have not yet re-sprouted, and so there are flat expanses of decomposing plant matter saturated with water.

Yesterday (May 9, 2024), Sandy and I went up to Lake Manganese, which is just outside of Copper Harbor (and about 50 miles north-northeast of our house). We were mainly going up there to find the remains of the former manganese mine[1]. The last stretch was a two-track trail that I didn’t want to drive my car over, so we walked in. Once we got close to our destination, there was a series of cliffs bordering the trail, mostly going through an outcropping of Copper Harbor Conglomerate[2]. Here is one stretch of the cliff, with Sandy at the base of it for scale:

Back on October 1, 2024, I decided to take some pictures of the ragweed that grows alongside our road. This particular enormous specimen was down at the base of the hill, and stood over three feet tall.

We got some significant snowfall at the end of February, but March 1, 2024 turned out to be pretty nice so I went out snowshoeing. Just behind the house, I found a spot where there had been a lot of frantic activity by small animals in the fresh snow.
