- I had an incredible opportunity to travel to Michigan's Upper Peninsula to teach a Gaia GPS class at KOAR, the Keweenaw Overland Adventure Retreat. This area is gorgeous and I had a great time exploring the area with good friends. Thanks so much to Cindy at Northology Adventures for the invitation!

I'm pretty sure that "Black Sand" is mine tailings.
It is. We call it "stamp sand" because it was a byproduct from extracting copper using huge stamp mills that crushed the ore and separated the more malleable copper.
Yep
Happy you made it to my home state! The UP is amazing as well as plenty of other areas! Michigan has so much to offer, except for a competent Governor! 😉
Aye Michigan fam
More Michiganders love that woman from Michigan than you realize buddy!
We made the 16 hour journey from NC to the UP two years ago and are enamored with the place. We went to the Drummond Island and Tahquamenon Falls areas. God’s country up there for sure. Looking forward to returning.
Great video as always.
thanks for teaching the Gaia class. We learned a few good tips and tricks!
Glad it was helpful!
We love the UP.! Very beautiful part of the country.
Welcome to Michigan, I really hope you truly enjoyed your trip up here!!!
Matt, I cannot express my gratitude for the effort you put in to join us and to lend your expertise in teaching a class. Thank you sir! I am so thrilled you enjoyed the Keweenaw as much as we do and cannot wait for you to bring Cara back up here.
It was a pleasure meeting you. The early morning thunder during that storm was amazing!
Great video and recap of KOAR Matt. Thanks for coming up to the great north and hanging out. Enjoyed trail riding with you.
Welcome to Michigan! That's how we do overlanding here. Lots of water crossing in the fall and camp by the great lakes. Hopefully, you get to come back in the future and explore more...
Glad to see you getting to learn about the “North Coast”. It is hard to comprehend the size of these lakes and the beauty that comes with them from Minnesota to New York State.
Thanks for sharing. You’re one of my favorites.
Thanks so much!! We will be back.
Been looking forward to this one. Thanks for getting up there
I love when people experience the UP and the great lakes for the first time! So many don't realize how beautiful the area is. My GF and I stood in all 5 lakes in one trip last year and it's one of my favorite memories.
We love it!! New UP video coming out in two weeks.
Thanks for taking us along for the ride … yet again. 👍🏻🇺🇸
I grew up in the Keweenaw and return several times a year. For the best weather and less bugs visit in late July till early October.
Nicely done sir!
Thank you sir!!!
Great adventure Great Film. I really enjoyed it. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for sharing! Amazing dense forests and shorelines! Those shots at the end, at the beach with the sun setting...just amazing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m very disappointed the Infiniti didn’t do the trail ride. Floating, I mean fording, the creek would have been amusing content.
In seriousness, respect to Fletch for getting out there despite not having his rig. The UP has been on my list for a while now and this video just makes me want to visit even more.
Nice! I’m hoping to get up there next year for one of my trips 🤙
We vacationed up in the UP this past August, and had a fantastic time up in Copper Harbor and other places. Well worth it for a summer trip. Beautiful weather and scenery.
Such a fun trip! Thanks for letting me hang out with you!
Kinda jealous you got to hang out with this crew.
@@BrianWest58 It was a lot of fun. I consider myself lucky to be friends with them, :D.
Just got back from there last week. Pretty close to peak/slightly past peak foliage there then. Also did Montreal Falls at sunset. I hope the new mansion owners keep that trail access point accessible as I had to walk from the gate as well. Brockway Mountain in Copper Harbor is the place for sunsets, sunrises, and the northern lights. If you are in copper harbor by the bay in town, there is a little old fishing shack called Jamsens…awesome baked goods…donuts and Finnish pancake with thimbleberry jam was some of the best I’ve had. You probably went south of there, but the copper peak ski lift is pretty cool in ironwood, MI. Also have the porcupine mountains and black river and presque isle river waterfall paths.
Welcome to the mitten!
We have a wonderful state to visit and the UP is an outstanding place to camp. We go a few times a year.
Going to hit that event next year!
Great place to explore. Under 6 hours for me. So many neat places to explore in Wisconsin and Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
Lake Superior shoreline is full of beauty-especially in autumn. Fewer bugs too!
Thanks for showing me a few trails I’ve missed.
Next time you go make sure to stop at the Jam Pot. Great baked goods and jam.
Check out the 2022 video from there. We made it to Jam Pot!!!
My 5 year old daughter loved those beaches. Great job Matt!!
Welcome to Wisconsin my friend!!
Just have to say I have really enjoyed this makes me want to make a trip up there!
Wow! So many beautiful sights to take in! It reminds me quite a bit of Maine. One day I’ll get the Jeep up there instead of flying…
This is why most Michigan people vacation in Michigan
to teach a Gaia GPS class “North Coast”. It is hard to comprehend the size of these lakes and the beauty that comes with them from Minnesota to New York State.
Beautiful country up there!!
My wife is from the UP and its gorgoues up there
Spectacular footage! Would have liked to have made it up there myself.
Being from Michigan and way into overlanding, I did not know about this event until yesterday. Is this something that is open to the public? I live in Los Angeles now but my family lives in Michigan and we were going to do a 4 week trip next summer camping to and from Michigan to see the folks. They haven't seen my two daughters in years. Love the content my friend!
I have been to Michigan a few times. Last time I was in Michigan it was snowing and I had to pick up a load and I was like I can’t wait get my trailer loaded up and head back south before the snow got worse.
Its nice to see an overlanding video of somewhere different
Been to the U.P. many times...Mostly by motorcycle. Great country. Probably take the new Wrangler I just bought up there sometime this winter.
God’s country!! Thanks for visiting 😊
Being Trolls from Michigan, we look forward to making it up to Keweenaw. Pronounced Kee-wa-naw.
suns out at rendevouz. saw you at the map while the wife was working behind the table.
Went up there to do some mt biking, beautiful up there
Yeah.... I can definitely see the huge value in getting something like a gladiator if you like to overland.
People worry about all the off road Angles and stuff but just put a 4-in lift on it and move on, you know what I mean... It's fine...
It IS true that a shorter wheelbase wouldn't need as much of a lift but as far as I can tell , people can get a 10 foot lift on the Wrangler platform if they want, lol...
You did Moab ... Case closed...
You can probably get out somewhere for a much longer period of time because of how much you can carry with you not to mention safer (from a survival perspective).
They don't make a turbo gladiator yet do they ? Gonna be awesome when they do. Would be GREAT if they did turbo + hybrid.
I wonder if you'd have to bring all those battery packs and stuff with you if you had a hybrid, maybe not.
Door County is a must see if you go into Wisconsin.
Absolutely In Love wit Da U.P....lived there little over 10 years! I'm not seeing anyone swattin skeeters or No See ums? really?!!!
No bugs at this time of year, thank goodness!!
Like this one,we have a cabin in seney
Awesome video, one question... You guys us GMRS for comms ?
Yes we do. GMRS is awesome!
Glad to see you in da UP der ‘eh!
Welcome the Great Lakes State! It isn't the end of the world, but you can see it from here, eh? 😉
I wonder if you could do two rooftop tents on the Gladiator at once .... Hmm...
We would love to come on one of your adventures. Would love to chat about it if possible.
Do you shoot video mostly on your go pros or do you have another camera you set up as well
I switch between cameras depending on what I'm shooting. Sometimes Gopro 10, iphone 13pro max or my Sony ZV-1
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures your videos are amazing and great shots. Keep up the good work and looking forward to more of y’all’s adventures
There are guys that actually surf Lake Superior in the late fall/ early winter they’re Hardcore
Do you use 5/30 or 10/30 oil in your hair?
That makes zero sense. 🤦🏼♂️ do you use your brain before you type? 😂
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures so your mom does the hair then?
@@daleolson3506 you seem way too concerned about hair. Can’t tell if you’re jealous or petty. 😂
Unfortunately, all of that flat farmland when you cross into Missouri is home for me.. LOL
No upper montreal falls 🤷
Audio, please reduce background and music levels.
Great footage👍👍✅
Music junked another video
it is very hard to take you seriously with that hair lol
I have no need for you to take me seriously. I’m out having a blast in life, not sitting in a board meeting. I’m not changing who I am because you’re petty and judgmental. 🤷🏼♂️
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures lol never said you should.
Ya its ridiculous
The Qanon Overlanding retreat …….
Good! People are waking up.
Lmao, nobody pronounces it correctly.
