2014 Trenary Outhouse Classic is February 22nd

Winter is tough. Yoopers have to be even tougher to make it through an Upper Peninsula winter. This winter has been one of the coldest and snowiest of recent memory and the need to get out and blow off some steam is greater than most years. Yoopers have found a great way to get out of the winter blahs - the Trenary Outhouse Classic. 2014 marks the 21st year for this Yooper tradition.

Video of the Outhouse Classic in Trenary

Last year, I wrote about the Outhouse Classic that takes place up in Trenary, Michigan. I was fortunate enough to come across a video of the 2005 event on YouTube. Some of the outhouses people made for the race are quite well done and could stand on their own as Upper Peninsula works of art. People wear crazy getups and have a tone of fun by the looks of things.
