Keewenaw Dawn

Dawn breaks at the tip of the Keewenaw Penninsula in Michigan. The Keewenaw juts out into Lake Superior. Early one morning a group of friends from Michigan Photo Adventures hiked up through the dark to witness and photograph the dawn…It was a beautiful morning and highlight of the early autumn trip up north!

Eagle Harbor Lighthouse

Known as the Great Lake State, Michigan has 3126 miles of freshwater coastline and 116 lighthouses, more than any other state. There is history and beauty associated with each and every lighthouse. Most of these lighthouses no longer serve as navigational aids but many are maintained by historical associations eager to share their history. Eagle Harbor Lighthouse is located in the Keewenaw Peninsula of Michigans' UP.

Bare Bluff Dawn

Michigan Photo Adventures hosted a photo workshop this fall in the western UP and Keewenaw Peninsula. Early one morning we hiked up in the dark to Bare Bluff to view the tip of the Keewenaw Peninsula at dawn. The scenery was amazing even though the sun rise over Lake Superior wasn't all that spectacular on that particular morning. I must say the experience and company was wonderful. This is easily one of my favorite hikes in the upper peninsula. MPA members Michael Marowske and George Hamzik busy at work on the Tip of the Keewenaw:
