Trent Jonas came to Minnesota to attend college - and never left. He's a Twin Cities-based writer with a BA in English and a MFA in creative writing, a Minnesota Master Naturalist, and the proud father of two adult children. With more than a decade of freelance writing experience under his belt, Trent is often out exploring his favorite topics: Minnesota's woods, lakes, and trails. Rhubarb pie is his weakness, so discovering new diners is also a passion.
As a gateway community for the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW), folks flock to the small town of Ely year-round, but the town truly comes alive during the colder months, making it a premier winter destination in Minnesota.
When you live in Minnesota, winter’s a part of life, and a visit to Ely will help you appreciate just how wonderful the season can be. While you’re in the area, be sure to visit the Bavarian-themed town of Biwabik, which is less than an hour from Ely and home to Giant’s Ridge Ski Resort.
Have you visited Ely in the wintertime? What other Minnesota towns come alive during the winter season?
