Mackinac Island Cross Country Skiing
The Mackinac Island Ski club grooms trails on the east and north side of the Island in Mackinac Island State Park.
The cross country ski trails wind through the pristine woods of Mackinac Island State Park and allow the winter visitor to see all of the natural and historical landmarks of the island.
You can follow the ski trails to the interior of the island and take in the vistas from the highest point on the island at Fort Holmes. Or ski through the woods to Arch Rock and enjoy the view of Lake Huron from the bluffs on the eastern side of the island.

For over a century, the Stonecliffe mansion has stood as a timeless piece of Mackinac Island. Now it is a Humanitarian Hotel, where every stay helps fund the Pulte Family Charitable Foundation’s efforts to provide food, housing, education, and medical support to communities in need.
Your getaway becomes a way to create change.

Hydrangeas are one of my favorite flowers and this fun fact I learned while creating The Gardens of Mackinac Island makes me giggle! 🤭
I often decorate the house with vases of dried hydrangeas like these that I found on a walk. Sometimes, we leave them up all winter and let snow fall on them like little white Santa hats.

Mackinac Blue. From a memorable April morning in 2021 shooting with my friend Bill Higgins (billhiggins53), who passed away unexpectedly the following year. Bill was such a good man and talented photographer.

Appropriate for all ages, I hope these coloring pages bring you the same peace, joy, and inspiration I felt when capturing them.
Thank you for supporting this creative adventure. 💛🌲
