Hiawatha National Forest (7 EPIC MUST SEE PLACES!) Upper Peninsula Michigan
In this episode I drove 400 miles and only had 2 days to see the most fantastic places while RV camping on this Upper Peninsula Michigan/Lake Superior, Hiawatha National Forest adventure. I suspected this was going to be different than any others and boy was I right! If you are planning to visit the Munising MI/Au Train Michigan area… here are my 7 MUST-SEE places.
We camped in the Hiawatha National Forest at the Bay Furnace campground, a Michigan State Forest campground and this was the best location on the south shores of Lake Superior for us to explore the area. Nearby is Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Au Train Falls, upper Michigan waterfalls, Miners Falls and Miners Castle. These sightseeing attractions were amazing!
Stop #1
We found a very rough road that lead to majestic rocks on Lake Superior shoreline by Au Train Bay – located in between Au Train and Munising.
Stop #2
Au Train Beach
Stop #4
Pizza – Zaf’s Party Store
Stop #5
Au Train Falls – breathtaking upper Michigan waterfalls!
Stop #6
Miners Castle at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
Miners Castle has an overlook above some of the Pictured Rocks (standing atop the dramatic sandstone cliffs that border Lake Superior for 15 miles Northeast of Munising, Michigan. The views were amazing. Next time I visit I will view Pictured Rocks via a boat and there are commercial boat tours from the Munising city dock.
While here we also took the Lower Overlook Trail to Miners Castle – Big Pictured Rocks
And the Lake Superior beach here was great for rock collecting.
Stop #7
Miners Falls – a short trail leading to the waterfalls to these spectacular Upper peninsula Michigan waterfalls.
If you are looking for Munising MI things to do, I recommend this list of epic places. I can’t wait to come back for more Hiawatha National Forest adventures!

AuTrain River Paddling - in Michigan's Upper Peninsula
This video features my wife and I paddling the AuTrain River in Au Train, Michigan. We started at Cameron Crossing, just north of Lake AuTrain along Forest Lake Rd. We then spent the next 3.5 hours canoeing this beautiful river, eventually ending up in beautiful Lake Superior. This video highlights some of the beauty that this river provides for those who decide to kayak, canoe, SUP, or paddle otherwise. We did not use a livery service this time as the canoe we used came free with the cabin we rented. It just so happened that the cabin was on the river as well, which made for a super convenient river experience.
If you want an awesome Upper Peninsula experience in the Munising / AuTrain / Marquette area, I highly suggest checking out autrainrivercottage.com . Our experience renting our cabin from them was great! The owner is super friendly, and very knowledgeable about the area and the great things to see there.

Pictured Rocks Kayaking
In this video I take you along while I kayak Pictured Rocks near Munising Michigan. This is by far one of my absolute favorite kayaking experiences EVER! This video journals my experience throughout the day and is my best attempt to highlight the beauty of this national lake shore.
This video is split up into a few parts, and here's why...
We used Uncle Ducky's Paddling Michigan as our guide service. ( They offer several options to paddle Pictured Rocks, and so I thought it would be appropriate to split the video up into segments that would reflect the type of trip you might experience should you book with them.
The trip we chose was the paddle and hike. This took us along roughly 14 miles of beautiful Lake Superior shoreline, and then ended with a 3 mile hike to a pickup point. In the middle, we stopped for lunch at Mosquito Beach.
Some trips they offer just go to the point where you eat lunch and then return home. In my opinion, you miss out on a lot if you just paddle halfway and then back.
If you ever want to paddle this, I highly suggest long sleeve everything as the stable flies are AWFUL! Whatever wasn't covered, they attempted to bite.

Alger Falls - Waterfalls of Michigan Series
Alger Falls is one of the easiest waterfalls to see in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Mostly because you can see it right from the road. (You don't even have to get out of your car in fact.) It's located right on M-28 just before you enter the town of Munising, Michigan. Although these falls are fairly simple to get to, to fully experience their beauty you have to put a bit of effort into climbing to the top. My wife and I did, and the footage contained in this clip will show you just how cool this waterfall is :-)

UP Ultra Run Double | Pure Michigan
Scott will be trail running what he have termed the UPUR2 or U.P. Ultra Run Double, which is trail running the length of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore (42.5 miles), jumping in a float plane to Isle Royale National Park (IRNP), and trail running the length of IRNP (40.0 miles) in one calendar day for a total of 82.5 miles. If completed, this will be a new fastest known time (FKT) for both Michigan NPS entities in a day. From a “Pure Michigan” standpoint, I see this as a creative and personally inspired journey to showcase the “silent sport” (non-motorized) side of the state and especially the amazing running/hiking route possibilities of the area.

Challenging Canada: U.S. symphony protects Lake Superior
Canadian musicians, environment groups encouraged to protect Lake Superior with ring of protection with benefit concerts each July.
Inspiring Canadians: Boreal Chamber Symphony formed in U.S. for annual Lake Superior Day concerts to raise protection funds.
(Marquette, Michigan) - Canadian communities, musicians and environment groups are encouraged to start annual Lake Superior Day concerts by organizers of a symphony orchestra in northern Michigan created to protect North America's largest freshwater lake.
The Boreal Chamber Symphony will make its debut July 15, 2007 on Lake Superior Day in Marquette, Michigan with a dramatic benefit concert.
An American environment group is offering to limited number of travel stipends to qualified Canadian organizations who want to attend the U.S. concert to get ideas on starting a similar project on the north shore of Lake Superior.
An organization in the city of Thunder Bay, Ontario has already expressed interest and may send representatives to the Marquette concert to learn more about hosting such an event, said Carl Lindquist, executive director of the Superior Watershed Partnership in Marquette.
Earth Keeper volunteer media advisor Greg Peterson reports.
For more information contact the concert co-sponsors: Carl Lindquist, 906-228-6095; Rev. Jon Magnuson, 906-228-5494

Lake Superior Binational Forum
Story continued:
During a Monday (June 25, 2007) press conference, two percussionists demonstrated their skills using Lake Superior water and rocks to make chilling and rhythmic music that mixed with the sound of small waves rolling ashore.
An interpretive dancer gracefully performed on the edge of Lake Superior with the wind rushing through her flowing costume and seed pods on her ankles adding to the soothing natural music.
Haunting French horn calls, the soothing sounds of water, a thundering storm, and flowing interpretive dance using rocks, sand, and other items found along the Lake Superior shoreline are all part of the Concert for Lake Superior: People, Place, Purpose.
With a view of Lake Superior, the concert will have a water and environment theme. The audience will be surrounded by Lake Superior-related artwork.
The Lake Superior watershed is pretty much half of the watershed for the entire Upper Peninsula and one of three watersheds in northern Michigan, said Natasha Koss, development coordinator for the Superior Watershed Partnership.
We hope this concert can be a model for other communities in Canada to be able to celebrate this special day - we all share Lake Superior and we all use its waters, Koss said.
The event is sponsored by the Superior Watershed Partnership and Cedar Tree Institute, Marquette non-profits that founded the Earth Keeper Initiative in 2004.
Lake Superior is an international body of water, and we hope and encourage groups in Thunder Bay and Sault Ste. Marie and other Canadian communities on Lake Superior to put on concerts or festivals which support initiatives promoting the health of the lake, said conductor Craig Randal Johnson of Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The Marquette Community Foundation awarded a $1,500 grant for the concert.
We wanted to help the numerous groups who are protecting Lake Superior and keeping it as beautiful as it is, Martha Conley, Marquette Community Foundation board member and chair of the foundation's grants committee. We are a true believer in the community and Lake Superior.
Lindquist said organizers hope that the concert for Lake Superior will become an annual
event that might be replicated in other communities around Lake Superior, including Canada.
In 2004, the Lake Superior Binational Forum designated the third Sunday in July as Lake Superior Day in the U.S. and Canada.
The binational forum is comprised of U.S. and Canadian volunteers including representatives from industry, civic organizations, environment groups and faith communities, and works with governments in both countries to protect Lake Superior.
The concert will begin at 7 p.m. on July 15 at UpFront & Company, a Marquette restaurant with a large conference room that overlooks the Lake Superior lower harbor. A social hours begins at 6 p.m.
The concert is free, but donations are encouraged with all proceeds used for environment projects involving the immense Lake Superior watershed.
By offering this free concert we also hope that people will contribute to the Lake Superior Fund so we can continue and expand our successful Great Lakes protection programs, Lindquist said.
All donations are tax deductible and go to the Lake Superior Defense Fund.
Koss said the watershed partnership cares about the big picture, what we can do as an organization and people can do as citizens to protect our beautiful lake.
We all live in it (the Lake Superior watershed), we all drink from its waters, we all swim in its water, we paddle along the shore, we fish in its rivers that drain into Lake Superior, Koss said So it's all connected and everything we do on the land effects the water of Lake Superior.
Master of ceremonies for the concert is Marquette television personality and meteorologist Karl Bohnak (WLUC-TV). The orchestra is comprised of 19 professional musicians from around the country with ties to the Lake Superior region.
This concert will be a chance to lift up a vision of a good place and a clean lake - a symbol to the world of water and life, said Rev. Jon Magnuson, executive director of the Cedar Tree Institute and co-founder of the Earth Keeper Initiative.
This evening will be about a beacon of hope - a shout of thanksgiving and invitation to continue a struggle to protect and defend one of the world's greatest natural resources, Rev. Magnuson said.
Lake Superior is the deepest (1,333 feet) and coldest of the Great Lakes, its shoreline stretches 2,726 miles (including islands) and is fed by over 200 rivers.
The orchestra was named Boreal because the word means pertaining to, or located in, northern regions as in aurora borealis - and Boreas is the Greek god of the north wind.
The concept was inspired by the Baltic Sea Festival which partners classical musicians with environmental causes.
Conductor Craig Randal Johnson of Minneapolis, Minnesota and members of the orchestra want to bring awareness to ecological issues.
Johnson remembers the exact minute the Lake Superior concert idea was born: at 1:27 p.m. on September 14, 2006.
It was one of those moments when you realize things are suddenly different, said Johnson, describing that instant as a seed change and a real switch over in my thinking.
At a Marquette café, Johnson and a friend were discussing cultural offerings and the state of music in the U.P. and the annual Baltic Sea Festival.
'We wanted to see how the Baltic Sea project could translate to a similar initiative in the Great Lakes, said Johnson. We very quickly narrowed it down to Lake Superior.
Nature and the environment is an underlining motivating factor for all the music I do, Johnson said.
Johnson hopes the concert will educate the public about the environment and environmental issues and sensibilities.
The convergence of the environment and concerns of the environment are so paramount to us as human beings, said Johnson, who has a long list of orchestras he has conducted, including music director of the 2005 Finn Grand Fest symphony concert in Marquette, the upcoming July 27 Finnfest concert in Ashtabula, Ohio, the Marquette Symphony, and as an instrumental performer at Finnfest 1996.
We want to harness the power of music and art to wake people up, he said. This concert is important
I hope that whatever they (the audience) have experienced from the music in an emotional or metaphysical sense also is converging with a feeling of a need to do something to support the health of Lake Superior and the surrounding ecosystem, Johnson said.
Johnson hopes concert goers will donate because you've experienced this powerful music and a unique and potentially spiritual event.
In 2006 Earth Keepers received the highest Great Lakes protection award from the U.S. EPA and Canada, Lindquist said. The concert for Lake Superior is our way of saying thank you to the thousands of citizens who help us protect this truly great lake.
The classical concert will reach many extremes including traditional works from Mozart and Handel, a religious spiritual piece, and interpretive dance to the music of Finnish composer Kari Tikka and Estonian composer Arvo Part.
Marquette organizers hope the event will inspire future Lake Superior Day concerts in other cities encircling the lake like the Baltic Sea Festival.
Iron County native Evan Premo has been commissioned to create a new work for the concert.
Premo's composition Fall Storm on Lake Superior was inspired by a chapter in Lon Emerick's book The Superior Peninsula - Seasons in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
The chapter is called Fall Storms on Lake Superior.
I try to evoke the power of the lake in my music like Lon did in this chapter, said Premo, who began writing the composition in April.
The chapter starts with Lon waking up in his home in Skandia on a fall day and hearing the low rumble of the lake. He then drives to Presque Isle where he takes awe at the mighty waves crashing over the breakwater.
Emerick's book remembers shipwrecks during fall storms like the Edmund Fitzgerald.
Percussionists Carrie Biolo and James A. Strain and dancer Maria Formolo are premiering a performance named Elements that uses rock, sand and driftwood from Lake Superior.
I'm sure all of us have gone to the lake shore and experienced an amazing storm over Lake Superior where thunder is crashing and lightning is seen across the sky line, said Biolo.
The performers will recreate a Lake Superior storm by using a thunder sheet, and the wind will be created by a spinning corrugate tube and bull roar and a plethora of traditional percussion instruments.
A bowed Chinese cymbal hauntingly reminds me of the men who gave their life to Lake Superior, Biolo said.
Formolo will dance in an stunning costume draped in drift wood simultaneously producing an aural and visual sensation, Biolo said.
Lake Superior rocks will be rhythmically hit together, sand will be poured and water will be played, Biolo said.
Lake Superior rocks will be rhythmically hit together, sand will be poured and water will be played, Biolo said. A melody of sorts will be produced on crystal goblets filled with various water levels and a large tub filled with water will be 'blooped' and splashed in a rhythmic ostinato.
Biolo will perform Frederick Rzewski's To The Earth (1985).
She will recite a Homeric hymn praising Mother Earth and at the same time will be tapping four pitched clay flower pots with knitting needles.
Very apropos to Lake Superior -- who nourishes everything around us, Biolo said. If we take care of the earth, she will give us a happy abundant life.
The concert will include Marjory Black and Gary Reeves on French horns. The moving French horns will answer each other with calls resembling foghorns and wildlife.
The event includes an art exhibit by regional nature artists and Great Lakes authors. Displays will offer educational materials and opportunities for people to participate in regional environment stewardship initiatives.
The program includes: Evan Premo, Fall Storm On Lake Superior - a world premiere commission for this Concert; Frederic Rzewski, To the Earth; Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Symphony No. 29 in A, K. 201; Verne Reynolds, Calls for two French Horns; Carrie Biolo, James A. Strain and Maria Formolo, Elements; composer/pianist Carl Lindquist, Lake Superior Suite; Kari Tikka, 'Exsultate'!; Arvo Pärt, 'Fratres'; Georg Fredrich Händel, selections from Water Music.
The Superior Watershed Partnership and the Cedar Tree Institute organize annual Earth Keeper Clean Sweeps that broke EPA household hazardous waste collection records.
The annual Earth Day collection across northern Michigan has recycled or properly disposed about 470 tons of household hazardous waste including pharmaceuticals, old/broken computers and cell phones, poisons, lead-based paint, mercury, and vehicle batteries.
The Superior Watershed Partnership and the Cedar Tree Institute have collaborated on numerous environmental projects over the last decade including but not limited to stream restoration, controlling invasive species, restoring native plant species, storm water management, dune restoration, Great Lakes monitoring, wild rice restoration, erosion control and energy conservation.
Partners in those projects include Marquette County Juvenile Court, the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community, 140 churches/temples.
The bishops/leaders of nine faith traditions (Catholic, Episcopal, Lutheran, Presbyterian, United Methodist Church, Unitarian Universalist, Baha'i, Jewish, and Zen Buddhist) signed the Earth Keeper Covenant in 2004 pledging to actively protect the environment and reach out to American Indian tribes.

The Water Lords
The Water Lords is a 40-minute apocumentary on the rise & demise of the largest collection of freshwater on the planet, the Great Lakes. When you were growing up, did they ever teach you about the massacre of the Ho-Chunk people? Or that in the early 1800s almost all Native people east of the Mississippi River were forced to leave their homeland forever? Did you learn about the latent radioactive releases from nuclear plants into the land & water surrounding the plants? Do you live in a fallout zone? Did you ever hear about the largest inland oil spill in U.S. History? Does a pipeline run through your hometown?
Watch, wonder, and wake up.

The horses (both wooden and real) seen throughout the film are symbolic for the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (a biblical tale) and were inspired by an interview with David Jude. I later discovered this painting by Victor Vasnetsov that inspired me to include the steeds in the film.
Special thank you to the June Ross Marks Foundation and the Environmental Research Institute of Vassar College for financially supporting my winter journey around the Great Lakes, a 1,500-mile journey. This film would not have been possible without you, thanks.
