Keweenaw Gift Shop and Agate Hunting

The waters of Lake Superior are the warmest they have been in decades!  They were perfect temperatures for hunting agates this past summer. If you'd rather skip all the hard work, there is a darling little shop in Houghton called Keweenaw Gem & Gift with tons of souvenirs from the upper peninsula, including these polished agates. They have the largest supply of greenstone (our official gemstone) in the state. They ship out orders, too. Check out their products on-line. You'll find jewelry, lots of copper, bumper stickers, petoskey stones, magnets, clocks, fossils and even candles with copper flecks in them.
