What's in the Upper Peninsula on the Highway 41 Streetview trek? Rocks!

 

A few more places in the Upper Peninsula final leg of the Streetview trek;  a couple of them feature rocks. Because of the iron and copper ores up here, there may be some interesting minerals lying around.

We have to take a look at "Da Yooper's Tourist Trap Rock Shop". OK, we did.




The road goes through Clarksburg, Humboldt, and Champion before reaching Van Riper State Park on the shore of Lake Michigamme, which you can see in this view.




I had to go upriver to find out the name of this river entering Lake Michigamme. It's the Peshekee River.




Turnoff to the Michigamme Roadside Park at left, and some more rock at the right.



More to come, but truly, not much more.
