A volunteer-run system of trails just south of Big Powderhorn, one of three downhill ski slopes along the range of hills between U.S. 2 and Lake Superior.
Wolverine Ski Club organized in 1935 as a ski-jumping club and, as its Finnish founders aged, switched to cross-country skiing. Now it has a cozy chalet, with a wood stove, hot chocolate and coffee and homemade cookies. Wolverine’s 54 acres have more hills than ABR, and many fewer skiers

Right behind the house! Two trails, one for hiking and one for biking. Currently, approx 7 miles are complete from Ironwood to outside Bessemer(east) and a few miles west into Hurley/Wisconsin border where it joins up with an unpaved trail used for snowmobiling. The trail will eventually connect Ironwood in the UP to Belle Isle Park in Detroit!
