Here's a shot taken this morning from my hotel in Houghton, MI, showing the school's ski hill (I think the season is pretty much over):

Here's a second shot showing the old hockey stadium where they held the commencement when I graduated in 1971:

Up on the hill above the lake, you can see the shaft house for the Quincy Mine, one of the deepest shaft mines in the US, over 6,000 feet deep. They mined copper there until just after WWII. It's now filled with water up to the 7th level (there were a total of 23 levels). I've been down to that 7th level a few years ago during one the tours that they occasionally hold (I was lucky to be in town when they had arranged one).
