Ogemaw Hills Pathway

Ogemaw Hills Pathway is a cross-country skiing route in Michigan, about 4 miles from the town of Campbells Corners. The out-and-back trip covers roughly 4.9 miles, with a total elevation gain of about 140 feet. The climb is moderate, and the steepest stretch comes at about 1.7 miles in, where the grade reaches about 9%. Winter is the natural season for this route. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show January highs around 27°F with about 11 snow days, while March brings highs near 41°F and fewer snow days. That station sits several hundred feet lower than the route, so temperatures on the path run cooler. For a change of pace, the Rifle River, a fishing spot, lies about 8 miles away.
