I hope you enjoy this audio journal. You can find a video that provides a slightly different glimpse of the trip here.

Lower Tahquamenon Falls. Even though it is cloudy you will always be impressed when you come here. --May 23 2019 at 15:25. Paradise, MI, United States

Tahquamenon Falls. The Upper Falls are shown pouring themselves over the drop. While bugs can sometimes drive you nuts at this state park (not today) it is definitely a place worth visiting. --May 23 2019 at 17:11. Newberry, MI, United States

This is Clark's first backpacking trip. We are a couple hours in to our first day having our first lunch on the trail at a spot we like. --May 24 2019 at 14:09. Munising, MI, United States

Our first day on the Lakeshore Trail. Joni looks happy and ready to tackle the world. --May 24 2019 at 15:27. Munising, MI, United States

I wish I could recall what this car looked like when I first saw it some 20 years ago. It's been sitting here far longer than that. The place is an odd spot for an abandoned car as it isn't really by any roads but maybe that is why it's here.

Pine Bluffs is about a half mile from Trappers Lake. We had to hustle to get here for the sunset but it was worth it. The photo doesn't really capture the quality of the sunset colors though it does a better job with Lake Suerior which has grown rougher since the afternoon. --May 25 2019 at 21:37.

Lake Superior waves lap at the shore of this cove which is one of several. Andy is shown here and you can tell it must be a lovely day - he is down to his base layer. --May 26 2019 at 11:50. Munising, MI, United States

It takes a bit of work to gett down (more to climb back up) to this cove but it sure is a pretty spot I am standing in.

Grand Portal Arch. This year we walked through frequent mud spots that threatened to soak your feet. A prelude to what we would find the next day. --May 26 2019 at 17:07. Munising, MI, United States

Not much of a castle anymore but still worth looking at even, or perhaps especially, on an overcast day such as this day. --May 27 2019 at 13:07. Munising, MI, United States
