Description: Clearing a path for Spring. Hopefully, scenes such as this will be rare from now until May, but one never knows. Houghton city snow removal crews only a week ago had problems with rutted roads when spring weather arrived early. This scene was on Sixth Street. Officially, spring begins at 12:43 p.m. Sunday. No robins have been sighted as of yet, but Friday a crow made its presence over the Portage Lake district. [A Sno-Go machine chews up snow and spits it over the bank.]
