Here's a bunch of out of order photos from the UP of Michigan. places here include Mackinac Island, Marquette, Munising, Manistique and some stuff around the big bay de noc. There's some cities in here, technically.

I still haven't made it that far north in Michigan but I'd like to do so and these photos make me more anxious to make it happen!

[DetroitSky]

There's nothing like summer in the UP!

[Murphy de la Sucre]

Mackinac Island, Marquette, Munising, Manistique... never heard of none of them, good to see.

[subterranean]

Must’ve been last year judging by the foliage/weather. Great photos regardless. Love those vistas of little Midwest hills beside water. I miss thee.

[BnaBreaker]

Everytime I go to the UP I do it without a stop on Mackinac Island! I feel like once is enough. Haha

Thanks for the photos! I love it up there and now I want to go back!

Oh, I've got big bay de noc

[dktshb]

Looks really pretty and tranquil there. Thanks for sharing.

[deja vu]

I really enjoyed your captions (and your photos, too).

When I was in elementary school, we had to prove we could correctly spell "upper peninsula" consistently, before they let us pass 2nd grade.

[Architype]

These are beautiful, I've heard that part of Michigan is nice from people who have been there.

[xzmattzx]

Nice pictures!

[KevinFromTexas]

Beautiful.

[geomorph]

Many excellent photos in here, especially the dome!
