2nd annual UPYERS previews

A little something to whet the appetites of those planning to
attend.......and perhaps excite the curiosity of others.....

The Huron River:

The menu on the left will lead to all sorts of other attractions in the U.P.

Note The reference to the mysterious "Huron Mountain Club", an organization
so exclusive that Henry Ford, at the height of his wealth and fame, had to
wait years to get in! It's still active, still owns a huge tract of land,
still highly exclusive, still very secretive, still maintains a very
effective private security force. The Salmon Trout River runs through the
property. The literature never says so explicitly, but strongly suggests
that the river itself is jealously guarded by the club.....which would seem
to put it at odds with water use laws.

The Salmon Trout also runs through the Yellow Dog plains:

Perhaps not the best fishing water on what is nevertheless alleged to be a
premier stream. More he

And we haven't so much as scratched the surface.


All those planning to attend should get a copy of DeLorme's Michigan Atlas
and Gazetteer, study the pages covering the area radiating outward from
Marquette, and google anything else that looks interesting. Anyone NOT
planning to attend should do the same.......and change his or her mind.
