Taken in a place with no name (See more photos or videos here)

while there might not be as many saunas in the upper peninsula as there are in finland, there are still probably more per capita than most other places you might visit thanks to the fact that there are so many finnish americans in the area.

while i'm not exactly enthusiastic about the practice, i certainly won't begrudge the right of others to sweat unnecessarily in public or private.

at least they have rules :-)

bonus points will be awarded for the correct translation of the rules.

This is fun!
1. Sit on top bench at your own risk.
2. Remember this: Too much steam gets you real dizzy. You stumble down and break your bones at own risk.
3. If sweat gets in your eyes, just blink a couple of times.
4. If you get sliver in your backside from the bench, don't holler too loud. Neighbours will think we butchering a pig, and be looking for pork chops next day, and rightaway be asking: "When the head cheese be done?"
5. When you all done (or if you slip on the soap) put it back in the soap dish. Don't leave it melting on the bench.
6. If you get too hot go jump in the lake!
