Cook County News Herald

Historical Reflections





Chet Lindskog of Grand Marais shared another snowy photo with the Cook County News-Herald. This picture was in a photo album belonging to Chet’s mother, Mabel Lindskog. It is actually an old postcard, but there is no correspondence. On the front it says “Cook Co. Snow Drifts” but then says “State Highway #1.” So is it in Cook County or not? It’s hard to tell but it is fun to see the snow conditions in March 1932.
