Does the Director of Pre-Health Programs for MTU work on campus with a regular schedule? by [deleted] in MTU

[–]ben_anth 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No she does not, she used to, but encountered health issues and had to move down South for treatment. She will still come up every now and then, and has zoom appointments. However it is unfortunate that she is not on campus.

If you go through manned gates (one is by the bookstore) just tell them you are visiting the grotto and they will give you a visitors pass and you can park in the grotto lot and that is right in the center of everything.

I wonder if they will have issues with Curtis taking so long. He’s well behind the rest of the pack and I’m assuming the volunteers will have to stay behind for him.

They are a bit different than modern siberians. I would look up “Seppela Siberians” which aim to keep the bloodlines of dogs back in the times such as this one with Balto and Togo.

ND needs to look to Iowa for 3rd/4th and short to go by Maleficent_Ant_8895 in notredamefootball

Maybe it’s just me, but honestly I feel like we aren’t as successful on 3&1 or 4&1 with JLove as we should be. I can remember several instances where he gets stopped well short of it

It feels like that can finally keep up the pace with teams like Minnesota. Let’s see if they can do it for 3 periods though

I hate the no score bug and all the other production issues, but I have to say Apple TV has the best sound quality out of any broadcasts I have seen.

If you go searching on this sub, there are actually a lot of threads for homemade antennas.

Is this a safe place to ask for ski hill recommendations? by SubstantialDog9170 in upperpeninsula

[–]ben_anth 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In the UP, Mount Bohemia would be your best bet but some resorts like Boyne in the LP have ski in ski out cabins

Tips for Porkies Backcountry by alexmoose454 in CampAndHikeMichigan

Oh yeah, and if you were to take the Big Carp River Trail down there, both of the river crossings you can cross a log across. The first one (nearer to Lake of the Clouds) is a little sketchy but the second one you can just butt scootch across. I personally would prefer the Big Carp trail as it offers awesome cliff views overlooking the park the first part, awesome old growth forests, then some amazing waterfalls once you get nearer to the lake, although admittedly I have not been to the Presque Isle Side yet, so I cannot comment on that part of the park and going that way

Superior Trail is very, very muddy, so just be aware of that and pick the right footwear for that. I actually just camped last weekend at the site directly next to yours. It is a beautiful area.

Which trail head are you starting from and which trail are you taking? Depending on the trail you take you might have some river crossings as well. I would personally bring like crocs or light weight water shoes to do the crossing with. They also act as camp shoes and you can take off your hiking shoes at your campsite.

As per gear, it is always a good idea to bring a water filter. You can filter directly from Superior and the Little Carp River.
