downtrodden
Anybody who goes out to fly with 12 feet of snow on two sides of his house has me in awe of his determination. I looked up Calumet on the atlas and seems like you can use lake Superior as your back yard.
It's probably frozen over now, is that where you fly?
I'm uploading a pix of my Snow plane on pontoons as that is much better than skiis in deep snow. Hope I can figure out how to do this.

Have fun and watch out for frostbite.
