Nov 18, 2010Yep, the Michigan UP has mountains, and they are right along the Lake Superior shoreline. The rustic camping area is about a 16 mile drive in from the main highway, and the nearest cell phone signal is ten miles back out from the campground. I had a nice spot located in this rustic State campground along the cliffs of Lake Superior, providing for some nice sunsets. There is water available to fill jugs, but otherwise you are on your own. A backpackers paradise, and it wasn't unusual for a black bear to wonder through the area either.
