Highway 41 continues on the Keweenaw Peninsula

 

Returning after a couple of weeks to the Highway 41 end-to-end Streetview trek, which will continue to the end, which is rather close. 



Driving past L'Anse Bay. L'Anse Bay is the southwestern end of Keweenaw Bay.




This is Baraga, with Larry's Market to the left, a BP gas station and L'Anse Bay to the right.



A projection of land north of Baraga, and the Sand Point Lighthouse, mark the boundary of L'Anse Bay from Keweenaw Bay. Here's the Sand Point Lighthouse.  This one should not be confused with the Sand Point Lighthouse in Escanaba.

















Highway 41 goes parallel to the northern shoreline of Keweenaw Bay for awhile from here. The trek will skip past "Carla's Restaurant, Motel, and Cozy Inn" (Streetview had some trucks in it), and take a look at the Baraga Cliff Roadside Park.




Hard to see a cliff from the road. But there is one, and it's a very pretty cliff, too. It appears that the only way to see the cliff up close is from the water.















Here's a video!




We'll continue toward Houghton in the next leg, to be posted in only a few days!
