Q&A With IMBA’s Ryan Schutz "C: What’s the best trail system that not many people know of?
R: Man, that’s a tough one. There are so many. If I have to pick one I’m

epic terrain, and trails for every taste."

The Copper Harbor Trails System provides over 25 miles of exhilarating, scenic single track linked to miles of adjacent trails and thousands of acres of forestland. The uphills show how strong you really are, and the downhills show you how gutsy you can be. In between, you'll see why the Keweenaw has some of the most breathtaking trails in the country. |
