The Porcupine Mountains


Having already been around the entire state of Michigan and having seen mother nature in her best, my wife and I decided to take a week long excursion to Porcupine Mountains State Park in the upper peninsula of Michigan. Although the Upper Peninsula is still in the boundaries of Michigan and the local tax payers eat and drink from the same pool as those below, you clearly feel as though you left the U.S. and entered an uninhabited euphoria of state and national parks. To the locals it is simply known as the "Porkies". Hello trip, meet my blog!
I figured the best way to go about describing our (my wife Dawn and I) experience would be to simply do a day by day walkthrough with pictures and hopefully good enough descriptions. I hope some of you are reading this, trying to determine if the Porcupine Mountains is somewhere you want to visit.
