  • Embark on an epic journey at Copper Peak, the world's largest man-made ski jump, and witness an awe-inspiring challenge for those with a fear of heights. While the jump isn't currently in operation, visitors can partake in the Adventure Ride, soaring over 469 feet above the tree line for breathtaking panoramic views. Join us on this adventure as we reveal the reality of facing this fear, from the chairlift ascent, the 18-story elevator ride, to the 8 stories of stairs with clear views all the way down. Will this inspire a trip to Ironwood, Michigan, or leave you feeling a bit queasy? Find out as we take you to the summit!
    Be sure and subscribe to the channel and follow along on the rest of the Lake Superior Circle tour. We are so glad you are here!

    Hi Debbye,
    This is the first video that I have seen the whole way through. I got the trailer on my phone once I subscribed to your channel. The teaser really got me. The part where you said "oh, crap" made me want to see the longer video and look (hard) for it. I felt really bad for you, however, when I actually saw that one because it looked so hard for you. Anyway, nice video!

    • @Lovenesters
      @Lovenesters  Před 6 měsíci

      That is a hard video for me to watch because I really didn't see how bad it was because I was focused on filming. Thanks for the feedback and for watching.

      Thank you! It is still hard to watch that video - I was doing my best not to look down!

    Congrats for your courage, watched by a french guy in south France 😉

      Thanks so much for watching! You could be our first viewer from France!!!

    You're much more brave then I am. I'd be shaking like a cold chihuahua.

    • @Lovenesters
      @Lovenesters  Před 6 měsíci

      I am honestly surprised the camera wasn't shaking more! What helped me do it was focusing on talking to all of you on the other side of the lens! Thanks for watching.

    If you like terrifying, you need to go here when the winds are blowing 20+ MPH. You can feel that ski jump swaying in the wind.

    • @Lovenesters
      @Lovenesters  Před 5 měsíci

      That does sound terrifying. The only thing worse would be putting on skis and going down it! Thanks for watching.

    Was just in Ironwood, no time to see the ski jump… this fall. I’m scared of heights 😢

    • @Lovenesters
      @Lovenesters  Před 5 měsíci

      So many great places to see in Ironwwod. The ski jump was terrifying but the drive to it is pretty. Thanks for watching.

    My daughter and I went up to Copper Peak a few years back. My daughter is fearless, but I was as scared as you were. Heights are not my thing. To top it off the elevator was broken, so we had to climb all those stairs. It was a feat in itself. I'm so glad I pushed myself to do it. How did you feel once it was over with?

    • @Lovenesters
      @Lovenesters  Před 3 měsíci +1

      It's definitely a high to have done it! I think the stairs were the worst. Good for you facing your fears!

    I was there a couple years ago. Climbing the tower was so nerve racking, because of the wind, but riding the ski lift back down was worse. Lol.

  • @markfancher5676
    @markfancher5676 Před 8 měsíci +1

    If it's something you never seen you got to see this place you wouldn't believe it

    • @Lovenesters
      @Lovenesters  Před 8 měsíci

  • @markfancher5676
    @markfancher5676 Před 8 měsíci +1
