They have a small village of Mongolian-like yurts set up at the base to accommodate skiers. They work well and people seem to really like them. I think we'll find a place for them in our future plans. Plans call for the construction of the log day lodge and 50 cabins scattered around the base of the mountain for lodging, which they hope to have ready by next season. Houghton, Hancock and Calumet also offer an array of lodging and restaurant choices.
Mt. Bohemia is located about an hour above the historic mining towns of Houghton and Hancock.
This area was considered the Copper Capital of the world in the early 1900s. Copper mining brought a lot of wealth to the area, which can still be seen in magnificent old mansions that abound throughout the area and beautiful ornate opera houses located in Houghton and Calumet. Copper mines ran almost two miles down into the earth, and a few are open for tours. Cross country skiing is also available throughout the area with many groomed trails for both classic and skate skiers. The ski area offers close to 20 runs and backcountry skiing serviced by two lifts that are close to a mile apart by road.
