I don't live far from Marquette. Upper Michigan is filled with hidden gems everywhere. Couple examples are Dead River Falls. Very fun hike and make sure to take lots of pictures. Another a little ways away is lake Kitchitikipi. It's so deep and crystal clear all the way down. In Paulding by Watersmeet there is what they call the Paulding Light. It's basically the same thing as the Marfa Light in Texas. These are also all fun if you have kids that you need to entertain. I had all good family and friend memories of it growing up. The UP is generally a very safe area from violent crime. We have rough winters but it attracts a lot for winter sports. Guns and bow hunting are very popular. White tail deer especially. Most people in the entire UP are generally helpful and polite. We get what seems like 6 months of winter here some years. Then hot and humid summers. Some interesting plants here. Unfortunately it's nothing like the desert or tropical jungle. We still do have many beautiful landscapes. Drinking and partying is huge here. It's unfortunate how bad the opiate, meth, and even alcoholism problem is. The lack of sunlight among other things can make it a depressing place to live for some people. Fortunately most of the communities are very helpful to those in need. We don't have a ton of urbanization or even any big cities. There is still a lot of fun out there and a ton of nature. Be very careful of Lyme ticks, the danger is underrated. If you're in the area hit me up after this covid shit is over. Would love to help make sure you have a good time. I would be willing to help a little bit with any expenses.
