Geocache Description:


Cold Cache Crew 2026 presents...

Frozen Waterfalls - Fumee Falls

Located in Iron Mountain in Dickinson County, Fumee Falls is a great winter spot in the Upper Peninsula, offering easy roadside access off of US-2. Multi-level cascade drops roughly 20 to 30 feet, and can freeze into a beautiful ice column, creating stunning scenery with fresh snow. It is easily accessible year-round. Visitors can see the main falls just a short walk from the parking area. It's a perfect place for quick scenic winter hikes and photography. There is a path and stairs leading to viewing platforms for the main falls and further upstream, but be cautious of slippery ice.

The Cache

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates! To obtain the final coordinates for this cache, you'll have to do a little bit of work for it.

I was taking a walk through Copenhagen, and noticed I was starting to shiver. It didn't seem very cold outside though, so I was worried I was getting unused to the cold Michigan winters (weak!). I asked a local Dane what the temperature was, but for the life of me, I could not understand what they were saying. The temperature made no sense - can you help me?
