Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0970909403, Paperback)

Completely revised and updated guide to both the celebrated places and off-the-beaten-path destinations of a wild, historic region originally based on mining and logging. The Upper Peninsula has mostly escaped rampant tourist development. This guide includes lodgings, restaurants, and campgrounds, chosen for scenery, tranquility, and often walkability as well. Regular notes are made for places that are family-friendly, handicap-friendly, and/or take pets. Opportunities for hiking, fishing, swimming, diving, paddling, looking for rocks and minerals, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing are noted. Visiting waterfalls, lighthouses, art galleries, specialty shopping, and museums are popular activities covered here. A large page format permits annotated maps and many illustrations. Fully indexed.
