[QUOTE="wwbrown, post: 2962525, member: 31392"] After living in the UP for about 15 years, from Escanaba (the so called banana belt) to Houghton I would hazard a guess that the heavy snowfall due to lake effect in a few areas may make winter kill of bears worse. Houghton winters can exceed 300 inches of snow and that may keep the bears in hibernation longer given its insulating effect, the den would not see warmer temps or longer days underneath that much snow. Just my thoughts with no data to support the idea. wade [/QUOTE]
