4 Weeks in Michigan's Upper Peninsula | Where To Camp + What To Do in Michigan's UP

[@MikeS-sc1yj]

Fifty-two years ago, my new wife and I loaded our 1963 Dodge Dart with borrowed camping gear and went on our honeymoon in the UP. This video brought back so many memories that you literally made me cry. I lost her five years ago and, when I go, our ashes will be scattered together from Grand Portal Port in the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. Thank you and remember to live every moment as though it might be your last. Words of wisdom from a 75 year old traveler.

Thanks for your post my friend. Same age and wife and I do some traveling. Heading to UP this summer. I can’t imagine doing this stuff without her. I’m so sorry

My mother was born and raised in South Marquette on Division Street. I was born and raised in New Mexico. I fell in love with the UP in 1971 when Mom went to her 20th high school reunion. I swam in the same rock quarry she did, met tons of family and loved Lake Superior. In 1973 after I graduated from high school my Mom, Dad, and brothers moved to Marquette, sans me as I attended college in NM. Christmas and Summer breaks were WONDERFUL. Today my 43 year old son and I are going to make my Great Aunt's famous Pasties ( a long-standing family tradition) just as she made them for me in 1971. Thanks for taking me back to Marquette and the UP.

[@EatSeeRV]

Sounds like a lovely way to remember a wonderful place and people ❤️

[@jordanblair5410]

I cover 14 states throughout the Midwest for my job, and in no other state do I see more out of state license plates than here in Michigan -- it's not even close. In many parts of west MI in the summer, it's normal for 20% or more of the vehicles on the roads to be from out of state. After traveling around in other states, it's obvious why people want to come here to vacation. The variety of scenery and natural resources is unmatched, and the number and quality of waterways (ponds, streams, rivers, inland lakes and great lakes) is mind boggling. Many of my Indiana and Ohio customers vacation in MI annually, but I don't know a single MI customer that leaves MI to vacation in any other midwest state. Keep up the great work with sharing your travel experiences -- really enjoyable!!

Beautiful...

As a native Michigander and a property owner in the UP i think the Michigan Tourism counsel should pay you HUGE dollars and feature this video on their Pure Michigan campaign. What a great job you two did on this video !! Your always welcome to have a private, free, level gravel spot to park on at my 10 acre piece of UP heaven, no electric but fresh clean cold water very close by.

As a former Yooper myself, you are living up to the typical stereotype. I mean that in a good way. I thought everyone was like us until I had to start working all over the Country. I now reside on the Alabama Gulf Coast. Southern hospitality does exist, but it's nothing like the genuine kindness you experience in the U.P.

[@Sues007]

I agree! I'm now going to vacation - from Troy, Michigan up I 75 to UP next summer for sure! It is the best place to see on Earth!

[@searose6192]

Can I ask you a question? We considering moving to the UP to homestead. My only concern is summertime temps. Where I live the summers never get warm, especially at night. How are the summers In the UP?

[@shirleybalinski4535]

The UP is wild & free. It is big!! The UP can encompass 4 ( of the smaller) New England states. Weather is unpredictable. The UP lies NORTH!! BRING warm clothes( even in Summer). Do not expect cell phone service. There may not be coffee shops, gas stations or other "take for granted" amenities. It is remote. Do expect friendly people, gorgeous scenery, wonderful parks, first rate hiking, very good fishing & tons of history.

Just FYI - Marquette is home to Northern Michigan University and is not affiliated with the University of Michigan. Secondly, Michigan Tech University is the name of the school in Houghton, Mi. (MIT is in Massachusetts). Otherwise, this video is very well done. The camera & drone work is crisp. The narrating is very informative. Love the historical facts, too. The UP has been 'second home' since the 70's and has provided decades of fun memories for generations. PS - It's Petoskey not Petowski😊

[@robertcolpitts4534]

If you get back up there, try Jean Kay's Pasties in Marquette. I know you like the veggie ones but get one with the beef instead; the meat adds much more flavor to the meal. You should use Catsup on a pasty; gravy is nasty and I'm not even a Yooper!😂😂😂

[@wesh388]

If you want a good jump into lake Superior, you should have jumped off Chapel Cove (next to Chapel beach)

[@lynnpugsley7109]

Interesting piece of trivia. Pasties were always eaten by the pit workers in Cornwall UK. The twirled piece of pastry that holds them together is where the pit workers would hold onto the pastie. So that they could throw the crust out as saying their hands wasn’t always convenient. They are really good filled with potato and vegetable with Indian spices. :)

[@hughjhardon8080]

Brought to MI for the copper mine workers. The pasty was a nice warm lunch even after working in the cold mines.

[@sherriweber7105]

I’m so glad you enjoyed your Michigan trip. I knew you would. There is a lot of beautiful places in Michigan. I have always loved their Lakes. I miss eating their pasties. Found recipes for them and we might try to make them. My great grandmother used to home make those for her husband who worked in the copper mine. He did that and made furniture. A lot of Finnish people lived there in Calumet. They worked in the mines. It’s a hard job! Glad you loved it. Can’t wait to see the next adventure. Have a great night and week and see you soon!

[@Beezer.D.B.]

One of, maybe even THEE best RV tour of the UP I’ve seen! So many RVers went to Michigan this summer, mostly to the UP… heck, even Gordon Ramsay did a tour of the UP this summer (food related, of course!), yet this is the best video tour! I’ve been to most of the areas you visited, including Tahquamenon Falls, but I didn’t even know that Bond Falls existed! Even more beautiful! Tahquamenon is pretty, with its tannic acid coloring, but Bond Falls was exquisite! Thank you for the tour!

It's a sin to get a vegetarian pasty. You weren't blown away because you need to get the beef version and drown it in gravy.

[@EatSeeRV]

@victorialopez9717 haha 😆

[@JHA6100]

You did an amazing job capturing the northern UP going to some amazing places, and you did an exceptional job appreciating & showing the natural beauty. One could easily RV for the entire summer and not experience everything. There is the Eastern UP as well as the southern UP, having so much to offer. I get it, one only has so much time on a road trip & need to select what fits into the calendar. The summer of 2021 we took the same route but when west-to-east, yet we had to do it in a much more condensed manner. Summer or Fall of 2023 we plan to do the Lake Superior Circle, 4 of us in 2 RVs. I can hardly wait! BTW, I studied at NMU in Marquette 40+ years ago and I just love the UP. WELL DONE!

[@EatSeeRV]

Thank you Jim! Hope you have a blast on your next trip! There's always more to see and do, we just enjoy what we can and know we'll never see it all.

[@timhvv]

This was fun. The folks at Northern Michigan University in Marquette might want you to know that they are not a part of the University of Michigan. NMU is proud of its own identity and is an important part of what makes life up here special. The same could be said for Michigan Tech University up in Houghton. They may not be "MIT", but they too make held in high regard nationally. I admire your sense of adventure and especially love seeing your take on our very special Upper Peninsula. Thank you and please come again soon.

At 2:04, that isn't Mackinac Island, that's Bois Blanc Island. Mackinac Island is a smaller island to the east of Mackinac Island.

[@chadb7252]

@@sylviahouder6665 Right, Mackinaw Island and Bois Blanc Island are near each other. Bois Blanc, which is what the arrow is pointing to, is much larger than Mackinac Island, and to the east of Mackinac Island. Bois Blanc is 34 square miles, and Mackinac is 4.4 square miles. (Also, the much smaller Round Island is between Mackinac and Bois Blanc.) Anyway, just to be clear, the arrow in the video is pointing at Bois Blanc, not Mackinac. It’s a mistake.

Michigan from coast to coast, whether southern or northern has the most spectacular places. And the Canadian side has some great places too. By the way... there's a great and safe diving area in the pictured rocks. it's been my family secret since the late 60s. I won't disclose the location because I don't want anyone to get injured should something go wrong. Great video of my home state.

[@altego33]

Pasties are quite dry. I like mine with gravy "> glad you enjoyed our beautiful upper peninsula. It is one of my favorite places in michigan

[@bobboyoop1141]

Canadians and "Trolls" (below the bridge folk) eat gravy on pasties, Yoopers eat butter and ketchup on them. And a pasty should never be vegan, most real pasty crust recipes start with lard then add the beef and pork mixture (you can still buy freshly mixed in certain stores) to the potatoes, carrots, onions, and "beggies" (rutabaga)! Lol

[@victorialopez9717]

They're not dry if the person making them knows what they're doing. My grandma's pasties were never dry.

There are few things more delicious than a UP pasty! I'm English and I would say that they are better than Cornish pasties. (....I will probably get exiled for saying that!!) Not sure about the veggie option though because the beauty of the pasty is the peppery succulent minced beef.

Excellent travelogue of a beautiful part of Michigan (I live downstate in southwest michigan-another great place). Your video production quality is top notch. One thing visitors should not miss is the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island (shown in your video). Rooms are prohibitively expensive in summer, but for $10 you have full visitor access to the hotel. The lunch buffet isn’t cheap-but it’s the most extravagant buffet you’ll ever experience (your $10 porch fee is deducted from the buffet price). Sitting on the hotel’s 600-foot-long porch, enjoying a drink and watching sailboats on Lake Huron, provides a taste of luxury. I look forward to more of your videos.

I'm a half Yooper, meaning my dad was born and raised in the UP - born in Munising, but was adopted and raised in the Iron River area. I spent every single summer for 30 years of my life up there and lived there twice. Once my grandma passed away, it was too unbearable for me to go back, but we just did a few weeks ago and I got to show my son the place I call "home." I had a whole new appreciation for the beauty after being gone for so long. I'm tearing up just remembering my visit. My grandma was born in National Mine (near Ishpeming) and her parents were Cornish and their parents were Cornish immigrants. Grandma made the BEST pasties because she learned from those who had generations of experience. Her family were miners so they ate them back in Cornwall and brought their tradition to the UP. My grandpa was born and raised in the Iron River area (his grandfather was one of the first settlers of Iron River) and he was a miner as well so it was great that he had my grandma's authentic pasties. Everyone asks for her recipe but only a select few know the REAL way she made them.

It's so sad what happened to those Beautiful Sacred people. I cry thinking about it. It's because of them that area is so amazing. The food up there is the worst, as you reported. Important to bring your own real food. Thank you for your channel, inspiring us, and sharing. I Love WE 🙏🏽💖❤️

[@victorialopez9717]

I spent ALL my summers up there until I was an adult, and still spent a portion of each summer up there until I was 30. I did spent a winter there as well living with my grandparents and it was definitely harsh. Several years ago, I did Ancestry DNA and did my research based on it to learn my biological roots (my dad was adopted) and learned that my ancestors through both of my dad's birth parents have Ojibwe ties, so I am connected to some of the original settlers of the UP.

State forest campgrounds are a great low cost way to camp. Most are right on the water. The last State forest I camped is by Harrisville on lake Huron. Took my grandson's and had a great time.

A very good ( the word doesn't do it justice) overview and interesting travel guide to those wanting to travel to this area. You've covered something for everyone I feel. I've enjoyed 'my' time here a lot. Thanks for bringing your world to mine. 🇳🇱 🙋‍♀️ 🇳🇿💖 🙏
