We had our second yooper GTG last Saturday - a beautiful warm day (18 degrees). Once you got moving around, you didn't even notice the nip in the air. Present at the gtg was alfresco, politically_incorrect, and myself.
Here are a few pics I shot - the guy walking in the one is Paul, my husband the pond tester (have to make sure the water is frozen solid somehow).

On the drive from Baraga to Marquette ... Yes, it was brisk:
It didn't matter that I was taking photos of what was in the car, the windshield had so much gunk on it I could barely see out.
OH MY GOD! It looks waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to cold there!
This was a warm day - it was above 0F :)
Actually it was even warmer, about 15F. The problem isn't the cold, it's the wind. It's no problem standing around in subzero weather when there's no wind. Add wind and it does get chilly.
Sort of the opposite of the heat-belt. It's hot, but the breeze helps instead of hinders.
If you want feel free to visit for the next GTG - we're thinking frozen waterfalls :)
