BEST of MACKINAC ISLAND, Pictured Rocks Lakeshore, Lake Superior, Huron, Michigan

In this video we are on route from Chicago along the western shores of Lake Michigan to Mackinac Island in Lake Huron. This small island town is "pearl of the GREAT LAKES" where motorized vehicles have been prohibited since 1898. Only horses and bicycles dominate the streets. Located just of the Straits of Mackinac between Lake Michigan and Lake Huron it was a strategic center of the fur trade around the Great Lakes. Based on a former trading post, Fort Mackinac was constructed on the island by the British during the American Revolutionary War. It was the site of two battles during the War of 1812 before the northern border was settled and the US gained this island in its territory. Another smaller Fort Holmes sits on the highest ridge of the Island. Mackinac Island is the destination for two sailing races. It serves as the finish line for both the Port Huron to Mackinac Race and the Chicago Yacht Club Race to Mackinac. The races are run a week apart, in July. They are both among the longest freshwater sailing races in the world and attract over 500 boats and 3,500 sailors combined. Both races are historical events, having been run every year since the 1920s. After leaving Mackinac Island we continue deeper into the Upper Michigan peninsula, which is sparsely populated , mostly wooded stretch of land between Lake Michigan and Lake Superior. We explored port city of Marquette and beautiful Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore which is rich in natural beauty with colorful cliffs, sand dunes, waterfalls and forests.
