What is Mackinac Island Like in Winter?
That was one of the questions asked last week when a winter scene
from “Discovered – The Cross of Lorraine” was mentioned.
The answer? Very different.
Yes, motorized vehicles, snowmobiles that is, are allowed.
But bikes are used too, as long as possible.
With the awnings, flags, signage and colorful storefronts gone,
the streets look quite bare.
But the peaceful blanket of snow makes the island even more beautiful.
Especially when contrasted with the brilliant blue skies and stormy lake waters.
If you haven’t seen the video, “The Ice Bridge – Mackinac Island’s Hidden Season,” you should.
Available at the Island Book Store on Mackinac. It is stunning.
