SUMMARY:Superior Shipwrecks Exhibit Opens at Beaumier Center
DESCRIPTION:The Beaumier U.P. Heritage Center at Northern Michigan University will open a new exhibition titled “Gales of November: Shipwrecks on Lake Superior” at noon on Friday\, Sept. 19\, in its gallery in Gries Hall. \nFrom the earliest days of sailing vessels on Lake Superior\, November has taken its toll on the maritime trade. This exhibit will look at some of the more famous and fascinating shipwrecks that led to either the disappearance of a vessel or its eventual destruction.   \nIn November\, large arctic air masses in Alaska and Canada begin to make their way southeast across the lakes\, while low-pressure systems from the Gulf of Mexico travel northward toward the lakes. When these systems collide over the Great Lakes\, it creates a very unstable weather pattern that can essentially turn into an inland hurricane. One nickname for these storms is the “Witch of November\,” characterized by gale-force winds\, massive waves and quick-changing weather patterns.  \nNovember will mark the 50th anniversary of the sinking of the “Edmund Fitzgerald” and the story of that tragedy will be chronicled in the exhibit. Other shipwrecks that will be featured include the “Algoma” (1885)\, “Bannockburn” (1902)\, “Lucerne” (1886)\, “Myron” (1919) and many others. Each section will feature images of these ships\, copies of weather maps from the day they sank\, and newspaper headlines of some of the storms that wrecked their havoc on Lake Superior shipping. There will also be several artifacts on display from various Lake Superior shipwrecks on loan from Isle Royale National Park. \nVisitors can also view a selection of drawings on display by the noted maritime artist Ed Pusick that feature his dramatic interpretations of various shipwrecks\, including the “Edmund Fitzgerald.” These drawings are on loan from the Fred Stonehouse collection at the Marquette Maritime Museum. Pusick (1927-2006) was a Navy veteran and architectural illustrator\, best known as the “Master of Disaster” for his detailed illustrations of Great Lakes shipwrecks. After a military accident disabled him\, he pursued his passion for drawing\, creating influential shipwreck art that was featured on the History Channel\, in museums and in books by historians such as Fred Stonehouse.  \nThe exhibition will be on display in the Beaumier Center’s gallery through Dec. 20 and is free and open to the public. The Beaumier Center is open from noon to 5 p.m. Monday-Friday and from noon to 4 p.m. Saturdays.

SUMMARY:Join us for a group hike!
DESCRIPTION:Come join us for one more hike before the snow flies. The hike begins at the paved Sugarloaf parking lot on CR550 and proceeds to the top of Sugarloaf Mountain with its spectacular vistas of Lake Superior and the surrounding area. From the summit\, the hike will descend along the NCT spur on the back side of Sugarloaf until it connects with the main NCT trail. The hike will then proceed west crossing over CR550 and several moderate\, but beautiful rock outcroppings to Wetmore Pond. From the pond\, it’s a short hike to the Wetmore Pond parking area where we will have some vehicles spotted for the short drive back to the Sugarloaf parking.  (Note: we will be initially meeting at the Wetmore Pond parking area to spot some vehicles.) \n  \nOur hike will be led by Marquette Area Chapter Hike Leader Dennis Fattaleh (906-360-6441)\, an experienced hiker. \n  \nThis hike will cover approximately 4 miles of terrain and is an intermediate hike. Proper hiking boots are required. Expect a few wet spots and occasional steep climbs. Plan on 3 to 4 hours of hiking time. Don’t forget to bring water and a snack! \n  \nWe’ll meet on Saturday\, November 15th at 10:00 AM at the Wetmore Pond parking area located ½ mile north of Sugarloaf on CR550 (Google Map link here).  Look for the guard rail on the left side of the road at the bottom of the hill as the road curves to the right. The entrance to the parking lot is directly in front of this guard rail. Please drive to the back of the parking area. From there\, we will load into about half the vehicles to drive the ½ mile to the Sugarloaf parking lot to begin the hike. Please be open to having fellow hikers in your vehicles to help with staging cars at both ends. \n  \nThis event is limited to 12 participants and advanced registration is required. Please click here to register. Registration will be open until Friday\, November 14th or until we reach capacity. \n  \nWe hope to see you there! \n
