Temperatures lately have been near perfect in the Copper Country, leading right into a huge clearance sale going on this weekend at Surplus Outlet in downtown Houghton. As shown outside, brothers Tim and Travis Porter of Calumet along with friends Timikka Moe, Alex and Bree (brother and sisters) Baker eagerly search the racks for the perfect style and fit. While they were not photographed wearing masks as they were among the outside racks, customers inside the store have been wearing them throughout the sale.
