By Beth Milligan | Jan. 23, 2023

As we all know, winters in northern Michigan can be long. So, in the name of staving off cabin fever and embracing the season, the Northern Express - sister publication of The Ticker - has collected a handful of activities that may pique your interest while also keeping you active, engaged, and breathing in the fresh air in the coming weeks. From Firelight Fridays in Elk Rapids and moonlit guided snowshoe hikes at Grass River Natural Area to Gaylord's annual Michigan Snowmobile Festival and Suttons Bay's Yeti Fest, we've got over a dozen ideas to help get you through the remaining winter months in northern Michigan. 

The Northern Express is available to read online, or pick up a free copy on newsstands at nearly 700 spots in 14 counties across northern Michigan.
