Keweenaw Trails Improves Design, Mobile Friendliness
Keweenaw Trails has a new design, intended to be friendlier, simpler, and easier to negotiate on mobile devices. We’ve consolidated some of the menu items to simplify the navigation, but all of the content is still here.
When the snow flies, you will still find daily updates from trail groomers. We still have the most comprehensive outdoor event schedule in the area. And the classifieds are still there and they are still free.
Several organizations helped to finance the redesign, including the Swedetown Trails Club, Michigan Tech Athletics and Recreation, Chassell Recreation, and the Keweenaw Trails Alliance.
