Whereabouts in Michigan is she? I grew up near Standish and spent my first 30+ years in that state. We go back almost every summer to see our folks, too. Heading there sometime this coming June... DW's parents are near West Branch, but mine are gone so on my side we just see siblings.
+1 for a detour north of Duluth to Grand Marais and all the wonderful state parks along the shoreline. Palisade Head has a fabulous view high above the lake. Artist's Point at Grand Marais, the Split Rock Light, and the many waterfalls and riverside hiking trails make for a heavenly destination.
Glacier is apt to be on the chilly side in early or mid June. For that matter, we saw snow in Jackson Hole (Tetons area) 6/13/99, so take coats, hats and gloves whichever one you pick. Having been to Glacier, Yellowstone, and Tetons, I would say be sure you don't miss the Tetons. You stand in a valley and look up at these marvelous peaks, or see their reflections in the lake, and it's magical.
