Because I've already driven across it many times!
I figure the feeling of looking down through the decking to the water hundreds of feet below with the wind blowing would be just awesome! 8)

UB

One of the campgrounds we stayed at was $10 / night it is a rustic state campground on Andrus Lake.  These are first come first serve no reservations.  There are several of these located near Paradise and Whitefish Point which is near the Falls. 

And if you get over this way let us know and we will set up a get together we are not that far from Furby.

As far as that goes we have a place for you to park you truck and camper.

Lehto's. This will help you recognize the "pasty stop" as you go west on US-2 from the Mackinaw Bridge. Really an historical site.

Thanks for the info stumpjumpers , that is great to know that !

pasbuild I always know youre up around marquette but I just have a bad habit of getting behind the wheel and rolling along . Someday that will change !

I have seen that Lehtos place 20 times in my travels and will for sure have to sit down and  enjoy .  Its pronounced Pasty like Patsy Cline except Pasty Cline , well thats how my fiance put it right after she slugged me .

My computer took a huge lightning strike last week and had to get a modem and some other part I dont know what the heck it is but it works . Gordon Lightfoot for President !

next time ya get up that way, check out mill creek. its about 5 miles south of mackinaw on 23. pretty cool water powerd mill. a stop at castle rock and a climb to the top is well worth it too. awesome view. and dont miss out on the mystery spot!!!
