This part of the UP is home to a grove of some of the largest and oldest giant white pines, growing more than 125 feet tall and dating back 500 years. We loved our hike through the Estivant Pines Nature Sanctuary.
A fun new experience, over the weekend, was geocaching for the first time. The park where we are staying hosted the event that ends up being a kind of outdoor treasure hunting game using GPS devices/coordinates to attempt to find the geocache (container) hidden at that location. We had lots of fun discovering different locations throughout the park, and found out at the end of the "game " we had won a gift certificate to a restaurant on the harbor. Even though Mark hasn't gotten his fishing pole out yet,we got to have a meal of fresh caught Walleye right out of Lake Superior!
