Cool Little Towns
We went from September 21-October 7, 2011. Thunder Bay to Wawa had the prettiest scenery. The color was outstanding! The Lake Superior Travel Guide was excellent. It MADE the trip. I knew when to stop and not miss any of the cool little towns. Gordon & Margot Wedel, Washington Island, Wisconsin
First Week of October
My husband and I just completed our clockwise circle of the Big Lake the first week of October. Living just a mile away from Lake Superior ourselves, we have always wondered about the other side of the lake. We were also surprised to find that many of our friends and neighbors had never been all the way around. Since we knew Michigan very well we focused on everywhere else and More
Fond Memories
We are preparing to make our third Circle Tour of Lake Superior this summer. Our first Circle Tour was our honeymoon in July 1991. We got out the scrapbook and repeated the trip for our 10th anniversary in 2001. We decided to do it again this year for our 20th anniversary. Our first trip was unplanned (after our reservations got fouled up elsewhere). It began with a simple picnic trip More
The Highlight of the Trip
Completed the Circle Lake Superior tour this fall with two friends. We left Minneapolis on September 27 and arrived back in Minneapolis on October 7. They then returned to Oklahoma and Texas. For the most part, we had gorgeous, warm weather and the leaves were beautiful. The highlight of the trip was the boat tour of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore out of Munising, Michigan. We took the sunset cruise and More
We Camped All the Way Around
We started our trip on the motorcycle going clockwise around Lake Superior, so the water would always be on our right side. We camped all the way around. The Circle Tour book was very handy to flag points of interest. We really enjoyed the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum at Whitefish Point, Quincy Mine Tour and Split Rock Lighthouse. The ride around the Keweenaw Peninsula was especially lovely. The best by More

Favorites were hiking Pukaskwa National Park and the Pictured Rock Cruises with a Bluegrass band. Paul & Nanci Damberg, Proctor, Minnesota
Fall of 2011
We always got to Duluth and then up the shore, but this time we went all around the lake. It was great except I had the flu most of the time, but it was still really good. My mom is from Palisades. We used the Lake Superior Travel Guide. We cut out pictures from the magazine and made a book. Darryl Vore, St. Claire Shore, Michigan
With Our Dog
We just finished circling Lake Superior with our Sheltie. We found many places to stay where we could have a dog. It is beautiful all around the lake, but our favorite place was Pukaskwa National Park in Ontario. It has wonderful hiking and beautiful scenery. Bill and Kay Whitmore, Davenport, Iowa
Favorite Part
Completed September 11, 2011. Favorite part – all the waterfalls on the north shore. Jeff Waskowiak, Marathon, Wisconsin
