Houghton Airport Guide
There are many interesting things to do in Houghton. It’s a national centre for cross country skiing and attracts thousands in the winter months who also come for the fun and friendly Winter Festival where anything and everything is constructed of snow and ice. Don’t forget Houghton’s history with a visit to the Portage Lake Ship Canal which divides Houghton from its very close neighbour, Hancock, and take a trip to Quincy Mine to see how the copper was extracted hundreds of years ago. You can follow that trip with a visit to the Seaman Mineral Museum, one of the finest in the US.
