Description

Take a trip through the heart of “Copper Country” on the Hancock/Calumet Trail. When more than three-quarters of the nation’s copper came from this region of the Keweenaw Peninsula, Mineral Range Railroad cars hauled hard-rock copper along this route. Today the rolling corridor is home to 13.4 miles of trail that also goes by the names “Jack Stevens Calumet-Hancock Rail Trail” and “Snowmobile Trail #17.”
