I am SO jealous. That is something I've always wanted to do.Quote:

Thanks for the report and suggestions. I'm really sorry we'll miss you. Next time for sure.
The last I new the birch forest is still their. That's a winter shot I've ben wanting to do but just can find the time to do. 708 Mahoney Lake Road off of H-58 is nice too. Also some of the small lakes like Gemini, Ross and Canoe are nice for sun rise and set photos with about 150 - 210 mm lens. Going to try to shoot 20 rolls of 120 aday. I sent you an email to your web page and if you would like I can email you a few of the cable photos.
I need to slack off on my schedule......missing this and photostock. Clearly my priorities are shot. Bill, keep posting these! Eventually I'll make it back up!
Just getting some more info online. Here is a page with links to the NPS maps for the area in .pdf and other formats (piro = pictured rocks):

Some of the links are dead, but the main map is a two year old revision, fairly recent.

I think our timing will be perfect.
Bill I've got some maps would you like me to drop them of at the Days Inn befor I go home so you and the group can use them?
It looks as if I may get freed up to come to this now!! My wife just took on a full time role at work and is unable to go to what we'd planned for on this weekend. So I'll look into the Days Inn costs and see what they have available....
That would be great, Jim! How would I get them back to you?Quote:

Bill you can get me the maps back when you can. I work down in Detroit alot and we can hook up and I can get them from you. I work with the people that make tha ACT 51 maps here at work so it's not hard to get more. It looks like it's going to Sat sunny 54, sun sunny 64, mon some clouds 67, tues sunny 64, wed some clouds 64. If you get those nice slow moveing low pressure from the north you can get some big wave's crashing in. Their a few sopt you can get down and with 12 to 16 ft waves coming in it makes some cool shoot's.
