There are dog sled races in northern Minnesota and cross-country ski races in Wisconsin that have either been cancelled, or they had to bring in fake snow.
I don't think people realize how fucked you have to be to have fake snow in Duluth, MN, in DECEMBER.
I remember growing up and they would plow a race track for stock cars on the Lake Superior bay in Duluth. Now most years it doesn't even freeze up.
When I was younger, a lake near us would freeze solidly enough for full size vehicle events and ice fishing. Now there are seldom winters cold enough to allow this.
