SCHOOLCRAFT COUNTY -- Two Schoolcraft County residents are jailed after detectives with the Upper Peninsula Substance Enforcement Team caught them drying marijuana.
They were found in a wooded, swampy area in Manistique Township.
The pair had two tents filled with 384 marijuana stocks with a street value between $150,000 and $200,000.
They were taken into custody when they arrived in the area to work the harvest.
In addition, a second large marijuana growing operation was found in another area of Schoolcraft County. Arrest warrants are pending for that operation.
