Exploring the Porkies: A Weekend in Michigan’s U.P.

A weekend in Michigan’s Porcupine Mountains gave us everything we didn’t know we needed — waterfalls, trout streams, glowing Yooperlites, and the kind of quiet you can’t find just anywhere. With our boat in tow and no rigid plan, we explored wild rivers, local favorites, and the stunning views of Lake Superior. What started as a work trip turned into something personal, peaceful, and unforgettable.
