Porcupine Mountains Wilderness
I spent time exploring the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park — one of the Midwest’s last true wilderness areas. From hiking the rugged trails down to Mirror Lake and spotting wild mushrooms along the way, to scrambling down rocks for a closer look at Nawadaha Falls, it was a day full of solitude, damp forest air, and quiet moments deep in the woods.
Marquette: Ore Docks and NMU.
A day exploring Marquette’s iron shipping roots, riding the scenic Lakeshore Bike Path, stopping at quirky local shops, and discovering how much this town’s character is shaped by its history, university vibe, and wild Lake Superior backdrop.
