Put about 1,200 miles on this past weekend starting in TC, headed to the far side of the UP and back home to TC. Camped in four different locations starting in Ironwood and each day headed a little east until our last night in Marquette. The bugs in the Western UP were the worst I have ever experienced (I worked for the FS in Ironwood for a few years and never experienced this level) so we did more driving than hiking. All around it was a great trip and I always highly recommend the Ottawa National forest of you are looking for something with very few people and lots of waterfalls.

Awesome! I've been planning a trip from Detroit to Drummond Island, Duluth, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago and back to Detroit. Any clue as to when a good time to avoid the bugs would be? Preferably not during the dead of winter of course.

Mid July-September is always much better. Late spring-early summer is always the worst timing so I expected it to be bad, but this year they had a late snowmelt that must have pushed all the hatches to the same time.

If you are looking for a quick stop on the way to Duluth, Black River Harbor is a nice campground and has 5 waterfalls that are all about 5 minute walks from the main road.
