If The Buck Rack had its very own sled it would definitely be sporting buffalo plaid and a UP decal.

1st and 2nd weekend of January and 3rd weekend of February still open. Cold and snowy here!

At The Buck Rack, we don't wish for our canoe to be used liked this, but if you do, it's at your own risk and absolutely post a video of how that works out🤣

Tune up your sleds!

Only minor changes to the forecast since this morning. Significant lake effect snow and blowing snow is expected to begin tonight across the western U.P. and spread east before sunrise Thursday, continuing through Thursday night. Expect difficult travel conditions for the Thursday morning commute, especially near Lake Superior. The evening commute will also be treacherous for our eastern counties. Arctic air will blast across the region with this system, as wind chill readings over most of Upper Michigan on Thursday and Thursday night will range from 5 below zero to 5 above zero.
