Thanks Dave for sharing. That brings back lots of memories up in the U P. My wife was from Mercer Wisconsin which is like 30 miles from Ironwood Michigan. When we’d go and visit her parents we would make countless trips up to Lake Superior and Gogiebic forest up there. Simply beautiful country in the Northwoods. Can’t recall how many pasties I’ve had up in ironwood. Thanks again for sharing and ATB Mike
Thanks Mike. Its good to hear from other people with History up there.....the U.P. is a place a lot of people have heard of but never get to........well, you kind of have to be going there to ever "get" there.
Can’t wait to get back to da U.P. Being stuck down here in the lower part of Michigan wears on me! I enjoy all you videos and have learned a lot along the way! I can’t wait to purchase a piece of land in the U.P. and get started on my cabin! Thanks for sharing your knowledge Dave and look forward to more videos.
I think you have a voice for radio.Or maybe even some kind of story telling .Be safe and enjoy yourself while you are still young. Don;t be like me and look back and say, I wish I had done this and that.There is nothing like youth if you have the for sight to realize it. It slips away from you fast when you hit 50.I enjoy you and your wife's videos.
Back in the seventies, in NL Canada, I had a cabin on a lake in an area called Camp 6. It was called Camp 6 from the early days of logging in the province in the late 19th to mid 20th Century. Every logging camp had a number.
Say "Ya" to the UP, Eh! Love it up there, have spent a lot of time on the shores of Superior and crawled over most of the Hiawatha National Forest. This video brings back a lot of memories for me. Thanks!
The best thing about this time of year is that there are no bugs! Great camera work Dave! I felt like I was sitting around the camp fire with you! Thankyou for sharing, I really enjoyed watching!
My dad was born and raised in Michigan. I know he spent lots of time in the UP as a young man. He'll be 80 in a few weeks and lives in Florida now where I grew up before settling in NC myself 28 years ago. i love the "Old Country" I call it. Storybook woods lol. Great time. Thanks for posting! -Mike
I would guess that you were near Grand Marais in the UP. I went to Newberry (Oswald's Bear Ranch) last summer for the first time and then drove the sand road north by Lake Superior to Grand Marais when I left the Bear Ranch. It was so nice and quiet, no traffic at all. The scenic beauty was awesome.
Not even sure it showed up on the GPS or google maps. Asked the elderly man at the ticket booth of the Bear Ranch and he told me I could drive to Grand Marais that way so I did.
In neck of Northern Ontario Canada is almost the same as the UP...I joined your channel today and I'm stoked, what an excellent channel, thanks a whole lot from this old Canadian miner!
Thanks for the sub Fred!!! I love that Ontario/U.P. corner of the world. Great country !! There is a LOT of Canadian footage here on the channel. I drive from Michigan to Alaska and back every year, so there is videos showing a lot of your country.
Discovered your channel this past year during lockdown. I haven’t seen them all yet, but this is a great one. Thank you, from Oakland County, MI. P.S. I might see you around up there soon. My brother-in-law just bought property on Mackinaw Island and plans to start building in 2021. Might give me an excuse to get up there more often. The wife and I are spending our anniversary at the Wild Blueberry Festival in Paradise this Summer.
That's a great lake. Camped on that lake many times. Did you camp in between long lake and camp 8? Camp eight gets 74ft deep and has some nice rainbow trout in it. I've hiked and Portaged in to it before with canoe. There is a little pond called bullhead lake next to it. Nice brook trout fishing. Just about every lake and pond will have smallmouth and crappie in it too. To really enjoy it you have to go in for a week or more just fishing and exploring the lakes around it. Beautiful and peaceful back at those lakes. The first lake you parked at has become a little wilder getting well known. It was better and more peaceful 20 years ago. Nice video. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
As kids we always went on family vacation to Wakefield area. In a week or so the three brothers are headed back up to camp and fish for a couple of weeks in tents.
Da U.P. is definitely gorgeous. Nice video. Looked like a beautiful isolated spot. I'm going to have to side with you. I am also more of a coffee guy hahaha!
Bushradical He's definitely a spoiled pampered pooch. I don't remember the exact name of where we got him but they did not breed very often. It was an amish farm in lower Michigan.
Howdy David, Good to see you getting out there and away amigo. Its rare these days to get someplace where the silence is deafening...what a great location...be well...woods
This looks awesome!! Just found your videos. It looks like we were in the UP around the same time. Spent a week up there the beginning of October. I look forward to checking out more of your videos.
I clicked your video 'cause I just bought a piece of land connected to the Chequamegan National Forest that I plan on putting a cabin on. Didn't know you were from Michigan. Our family is from Escanaba. Too flat for me, I'll stay in Wisconsin :) Looking forward to more videos.
Thanks Common Ground. Both Brooke and I grew up in Michigan and have spent the last 5 winters here. I have a LOT of cabin building videos on this channel BTW. check em' out if you get the chance.
Ya, the U.P. is pretty special. I'm kinda bias to the Keewanaw thou. That were our now 5th generation cabin is at. Looks like a great spot there. I hope there is more to this adventure
Back in the day (88-92) my best friend and I would load up my Jeep and head out with a Sportsmen’s atlas, find a lake with no roads drive back and walk in ....sometimes the fishing was awesome sometimes not and the bugs are us alive!! But man did we have fun, those were some good times.....
Bushradical, thar`s awesome! I was just in Big Rapids a couple days ago. My brother is building a cabin in Bitely and we drove over to B.R. to eat at the Chinese buffet and go to Lowes. My other brother has a cabin in Baldwin, I go to Big Rapids at least a couple times a year. I grew up in Grand Haven, ittle bit south of you.
It's a Small World Dave! I've been hunting on 14 Mile since I was a little kid. Both my brothers have cabins up there, but I prefer to pitch my tent in the Manistee National Forest. My brothers hunting cabin is the red log cabin on the corner of 14 Mile and that main street that runs through Bitely. I usually stay there for the first couple days of deer season then move out to my tent.
Ah. . .been watching a few Michigan "camping" videos tonite. Finally a video that doesn't involve swimming pools, volleyball courts, playgrounds, 35' fifth wheels and pay showers. . . The U.P. looks more like how we like it here in Idaho.
Planning on riding my motorcycle to the UP and camping. Are all dirt roads in the national forest sand, or packed dirt? Wondering because I’m no expert when it comes to riding on loose sand.
When did you film this Dave?...sure much better weather than I have up here today, heavy wet snow for about 8 hours and stiff wind! Yes, that is a pretty place for sure, the kind of setting I like to do dusk canoe trip and listen to the silence as I stop paddling and drift. What a great diversity of trees. Take care, Chris
Hey, yah Upp'ers! I lived in the UP for 8 years. I have criss-crossed the entire land above the portage and some below, from east to west with just a compass and the basics. I might have even been to this same lake. I didn't even carry a map though as it would be difficult to get too lost. If you are on the east side, just go west and you will hit Hwy 41. Visa versa if you are on the west side. Some of the best years of my life. Great communities and people. Winters are long (avg ~ 200" snow!), but you can fight it off with Upp'er Pasties! A place where warm beer sometimes makes good sense ;- )
@@Bushradical I actually forgot to say '... nice video's. Note: I never got too lost in the woods, but I did get lost on a couple of old logger roads. They're twisty, and I never took one for very long when bushwacking. ... hey good stuff!
Reminds me a lot of a secluded lake I used to hike to and camp at in Vermont. I'd spend a week there at a clip and never see a soul....just me and the beavers.
Yeah, I grew up here. I've spent most of the last 20 years in Alaska, but the last 5 Ive been splitting my time...wintering in Michigan and spring and summer in AK.
Bushradical hope she gets well...hey man ..seeins how we are all in the Mitt lets do a Bushcraft overnighter... You prolly get asked that all the time...trying to start my own channel..had alot of Bushcraft vids that got erased on an Exes laptop..
I almost missed this one! Musta been out on the Red when it came out, service sucks out there. Anyway, beautiful scenery at ur secret spot! Did u go fishing too? I bet there's a lot of trout in that lake!!
nice black car :D . also beautiful fog on the lake Hey Dave, question, how does it work to camp in a lake "in nowhere"? I mean, kinda legally. Here in NJ I probably cant park anywhere, and all lakes are parks. But when I went to Alaska I felt like I would always be alone. How can I know if I can park and stay in a place? Sorry, just came back to US and kinda new to this.
Hey friend!😀 good to see a new video. Really cool going way out like that👍🏻 I don't know if I could be that secluded by myself. I have anxiety disorder. Did you bring any form of music?
It is beautiful there, I used to have 16 acres just north of L'Anse on the lake. It's nicer in Alaska though, wonderful summers and warmer in the winter, in Anchorage anyway.
Probably a lot less snow in Alaska too. L'Anse gets pounded pretty heavy with snow. Here's a fun fact. .....If you watched my Alaska log cabin video I just put up...My big Collie in that video was named Hoolie. I named him after one of the singers in the band ( Da Yoopers ).
That's exactly what I do as soon as I get home bro! Work boots come off and on slip the comfy slippers! WHAT?? No cooking show like Girl in the Woods?? lol.
It looks wonderful, not exactly sure what I expected, but when you said you had some catching up with us I thought you were going to make some kind of announcement or bring us up on everything. Sorry to be a demanding clamoring public. I guess when you do this so well people start thinking its easy or something. All that said as usual I enjoyed this video. Thanks for a good job, well done.
The fire didn't spread because pine needles really don't burn all that great when they are in constant contact with damp sand. I didn't think there was much chance of any problems and there weren't any. I slept about 5 feet from the fire and kept it burning all night, no issues.
Thanks Dave for sharing. That brings back lots of memories up in the U P. My wife was from Mercer Wisconsin which is like 30 miles from Ironwood Michigan.

I do love watching Bushcraft camping videos. You and Joe Robinet are the best at making these kind of videos.
Funny, Ive never met or talked to Joe. Being an Alone Alumni...it would be cool to chat with him.
I think you have a voice for radio.Or maybe even some kind of story telling .Be safe and enjoy yourself while you are still young. Don;t be like me and look back and say, I wish I had done this and that.There is nothing like youth if you have the for sight to realize it. It slips away from you fast when you hit 50.I enjoy you and your wife's videos.
Thanks WNM. I like to talk ....so youtube is a good fit LOL. I know what you mean about time flying by. I'm 41 and it goes quicker every year.
Beautiful spot to camp in the UP, Dave. Loved hearing the echo and seeing the calm water, "ghost breath" and beautiful sunset.
Thanks Susan. It was a fantastic sunset!!
You are awesome, Dave. Have so been enjoying your videos. Wish this one was longer
Yeah, I wish I would have done a longer version of this video

The best thing about this time of year is that there are no bugs! Great camera work Dave! I felt like I was sitting around the camp fire with you! Thankyou for sharing, I really enjoyed watching!
Thanks Bob.
Good to see you again Dave. Great video. You have to do a part two. Thanx for taking us along
I have couple more vids shot up there.
Thank you,That was awesome, loved your camp site and the trees and water,what a great place.
Its a peach of a spot!
Got to love the beauty and quietness of nature.
You know it.
My dad was born and raised in Michigan. I know he spent lots of time in the UP as a young man.

Thanks Timothy! It's pretty nice up there.
Great video! Thanks for taking us along.
thanks.
Nothing like alone time apart from a busy family. The should call it echo lake. Got my favorite slippers as well.
As kids we always went on family vacation to Wakefield area. In a week or so the three brothers are headed back up to camp and fish for a couple of weeks in tents.
Great spot, so peaceful. God bless.
Thanks
Think you heard it best , but serious pretty out there , ty for bringing us !
Great video! I live in Michigan and the U.P is one of my favorite places!!
right on
I know you did this a couple of years ago but one of my favorites!
Thanks Chris. Its a great spot for sure. Love that part of the world.
Beautiful scenery!
Thanks. The U.P. was my favorite place in the world when I was a kid.
Gorgeous area Dave, I gotta get back to Michigan! Sooo relaxing
It was a super nice week to do it. The weather was perfect.
Da U.P. is definitely gorgeous. Nice video. Looked like a beautiful isolated spot. I'm going to have to side with you. I am also more of a coffee guy hahaha!
hey Mattew! Brooke and I have been talking about you all evening. being outdoors with your Collie....its too familiar.
Bushradical It is great seeing her in your guys videos.
Hey MP, where did you get your Collie? He looks pampered. lol. Just watching a few vids , its amazing how much he acts like Daisy.
Every collie we've had all have a very similar personality.
Bushradical He's definitely a spoiled pampered pooch. I don't remember the exact name of where we got him but they did not breed very often. It was an amish farm in lower Michigan.
I remember copper mines area when I was a kid. Great stuff!!
Oh right on.
oh man the UP is great this time of year....I wish I was there! I would have to agree that the UP is one of the best places in the world.
Ditto!
Excellent, thanks for sharing!
Thanks J.
That’s awesome. Love the camp site. It’s not too hard to start a fire with all that pine around.
Oh Boy! All that dry wood was just amazing! Needless to say, this last year I camped a LOT in the rain. It was awesome to be so dry and cozy.
Another great vid......thanks
Thanks Lenny!
Love this video.
I love the u.p. been there on many solo adventures
Wow- we bought property about 20 miles south of Marquette on Lake Michigamme. Havent gone in there much cause of winter weather.
Howdy David,
Good to see you getting out there and away amigo.
Its rare these days to get someplace where the silence is deafening...what a great location...be well...woods
Hey Woods! It sure is a great spot. A lot of the UP is like that...whole lotta woods and trails.
This looks awesome!! Just found your videos. It looks like we were in the UP around the same time. Spent a week up there the beginning of October. I look forward to checking out more of your videos.
Right on! Where up there were you?
We camped at Kingsford lake. It was absolutely
beautiful.
Sorry kingston lake. I had to look up the name again
Where about is that?
Its about 30 miles east of Munising
well I'm from v island and it rains a lot here as you found out lol hey Dave looks a lot dryer there thou enjoyed the video
Hey Steve. It is a lot dryer than Vancouver Island !! By a LOT! Thanks for the comment.
The morning view is going to be amazing.
Yeah it was pretty great.
Nice place!
So peaceful..
OH, it was ! Super nice place.
Wow beautiful woods there I had no idea. I heard it.
Its pretty great in that area.
What a nice, relaxing video! Great editing and camera angles. Thanks!
Thanks.
About 8:30 was your intro to a burying the body in the woods video over a beautiful sunset 😁
Jealous. I am from Lower Michigan and I can’t wait to go back up to the UP again my wife and I love it up there
Right on

Say ya to da U.P. eh!
Wow! Now, that is a beautiful spot :-)
Pretty sweet eh?
I live in the U.P we camp off of lake Superior in RedRidge area from May till September. Love it here.
Right on Sandy. Where are you at up there?
@@Bushradical Houghton county area. Originally from the east coast.
Dave where'd you start off from .❓❓✌️ Cluster of lake's where your at❗😃
That damn UP is calling me again. It truly is a beautiful place.
You know it brother!
Nice Dave. Priceless! -Stephen
Thanks!
Lots of Alone memories ;)
Beautiful area. Did you hike in from Pretty Lake? We spend a lot of time down those sandy two-tracks, too. So fun to really get away from things.
no I didn't but you probably could
dave.....I like the name an I like your videos.....stay safe
Thanks David. I appreciate it.
What a great spot!!
Thanks K. PM me and I'll tell you where its at.
Bushradical can't figure out how to pm on RUclips lol. You ever use your Facebook messenger?
Yeah, of course. I'm pretty sure we're friends on FB anyway. Hit me up!
Nice spot there, Dave.
Driving pretty fast there huh? Lol. Love it
I know the roads , lol.
Back in the day (88-92) my best friend and I would load up my Jeep and head out with a Sportsmen’s atlas, find a lake with no roads drive back and walk in ....sometimes the fishing was awesome sometimes not and the bugs are us alive!! But man did we have fun, those were some good times.....
I'm curious about why you didn't clear the needles and leaves from the fire ring. Isn't that dangerous for forest fire?
Great video Dave! I've always been a troll but I love the U.P.!!!
Yeah, I'm part troll too. I grew up near Big Rapids.
Bushradical, thar`s awesome! I was just in Big Rapids a couple days ago. My brother is building a cabin in Bitely and we drove over to B.R. to eat at the Chinese buffet and go to Lowes. My other brother has a cabin in Baldwin, I go to Big Rapids at least a couple times a year. I grew up in Grand Haven, ittle bit south of you.
I drive by Bitley all the time in the winter. I take 13 mile from BR to Sipply Flats.
It's a Small World Dave! I've been hunting on 14 Mile since I was a little kid. Both my brothers have cabins up there, but I prefer to pitch my tent in the Manistee National Forest. My brothers hunting cabin is the red log cabin on the corner of 14 Mile and that main street that runs through Bitely. I usually stay there for the first couple days of deer season then move out to my tent.
Right on. Ive been camping up northeast of baldwin. There is a huge swamp that runs between Baldwin And Luther and its all two tracks and state land.
Ah. . .been watching a few Michigan "camping" videos tonite. Finally a video that doesn't involve swimming pools, volleyball courts, playgrounds, 35' fifth wheels and pay showers. . . The U.P. looks more like how we like it here in Idaho.
3% of Michigan's population lives in the U.P. .....Its awesome up there.
Planning on riding my motorcycle to the UP and camping. Are all dirt roads in the national forest sand, or packed dirt? Wondering because I’m no expert when it comes to riding on loose sand.
The roads are sandy, but I wouldn't say they are loose sugar sand.....just sandy
Beautiful. Wondering where is your dog?
I wanted to discuss being alone in a remote area and bringing the dog seemed like it watered down what I wanted to discuss. Daisy is home sleeping.
Thanks for the reply. Good to hear.
Lovely nature there :-)
Sure is. The U.P. is pretty awesome.
Nice Video! Lov nature
When did you film this Dave?...sure much better weather than I have up here today, heavy wet snow for about 8 hours and stiff wind! Yes, that is a pretty place for sure, the kind of setting I like to do dusk canoe trip and listen to the silence as I stop paddling and drift. What a great diversity of trees. Take care, Chris
Hey Chris this was a week and a half ago.
Hey, yah Upp'ers! I lived in the UP for 8 years. I have criss-crossed the entire land above the portage and some below, from east to west with just a compass and the basics. I might have even been to this same lake. I didn't even carry a map though as it would be difficult to get too lost. If you are on the east side, just go west and you will hit Hwy 41.

A place where warm beer sometimes makes good sense ;- )
right on
@@Bushradical I actually forgot to say '... nice video's. Note: I never got too lost in the woods, but I did get lost on a couple of old logger roads. They're twisty, and I never took one for very long when bushwacking. ... hey good stuff!
Thanks
Reminds me a lot of a secluded lake I used to hike to and camp at in Vermont. I'd spend a week there at a clip and never see a soul....just me and the beavers.
NICE!
My uncle and late grand father always brought slippers along when we camped
good way to go
Love it!
Thanks
What kind of bush knife is that?
Just found your channel..great vid ..you live in Michigan..i do
Yeah, I grew up here. I've spent most of the last 20 years in Alaska, but the last 5 Ive been splitting my time...wintering in Michigan and spring and summer in AK.
Hope you enjoy the channel! And, thanks for the comment.
Bushradical lol
Just figured out that you're Brookes guy😂😂i watch her vids too
Right on! She's sick in bed right now. We've al;l had a pretty bad cold the last few weeks.
Bushradical hope she gets well...hey man ..seeins how we are all in the Mitt lets do a Bushcraft overnighter...
You prolly get asked that all the time...trying to start my own channel..had alot of Bushcraft vids that got erased on an Exes laptop..
I almost missed this one! Musta been out on the Red when it came out, service sucks out there.
Anyway, beautiful scenery at ur secret spot! Did u go fishing too? I bet there's a lot of trout in that lake!!
Rez... Damn autocorrect
Hey C2F! It was a super cool spot. I don't know about rout but I did see small bass feeding own the morning. 6-9"
Bushradical
Wow! Bass are good munchies too!
god that looks cozy
Thank you for sharing that trip it looks like you had a great time ( lol any bigfoot there-? )
Squatch are prevalent in that area
Liked, shared and commented
seeing what you are doing...
nice black car :D . also beautiful fog on the lake
Hey Dave, question, how does it work to camp in a lake "in nowhere"? I mean, kinda legally. Here in NJ I probably cant park anywhere, and all lakes are parks. But when I went to Alaska I felt like I would always be alone. How can I know if I can park and stay in a place? Sorry, just came back to US and kinda new to this.
I never ask permission to camp in the wild.... So I dont know
@@Bushradical loved that 😁
If it's National Forest land it's legal, be sure to follow Leave No Trace guidelines.
Have a family cabin in Manistique and Baldwin ...haven’t been there in well over 20 years. It’s been way to long
I'm 20 minutes form Baldwin.
Bushradical I’m coming up this summer for sure!! Virginia ave...red roof cabin if you’re in the area👍🏻
Blvd.... boulevard not Avenue
I'll probably be in Alaska when you visit but hit me up here on the forum and if I'm here we'll grab a cup of coffee.
Hey friend!😀 good to see a new video. Really cool going way out like that👍🏻 I don't know if I could be that secluded by myself. I have anxiety disorder. Did you bring any form of music?
No I didn't bring anything for music. I did bring a book and the second night I read half the night.
Hopefully you all get a better Governor up there.. good 👍luck
I hope so
Would like to have seen sunrise next morning and hear about any animals you might have seen. No matter. Thanks for video.
Next time!
It is beautiful there, I used to have 16 acres just north of L'Anse on the lake. It's nicer in Alaska though, wonderful summers and warmer in the winter, in Anchorage anyway.
Probably a lot less snow in Alaska too. L'Anse gets pounded pretty heavy with snow. Here's a fun fact. .....If you watched my Alaska log cabin video I just put up...My big Collie in that video was named Hoolie. I named him after one of the singers in the band ( Da Yoopers ).
Bushradical are you coming up this summer?
To the U.P. or Alaska?
Bushradical Alaska
Yeah, I'll be up in April.
Haven't seen Brook post anything new in a while. Is she ok?
she's fine. Shoot her a message.
That's exactly what I do as soon as I get home bro! Work boots come off and on slip the comfy slippers! WHAT?? No cooking show like Girl in the Woods?? lol.
not on this trip.
Any concern about bears?
No, they are around but I dont worry about them.
Nice location!
sure is, thanks.
I'm up here now in Au train near Munising
Man, people are going to find this channel, and it’s going to explode...
Thanks , I hope you're right.
Well Dave, what did I tell ya? How many views on that cabin video now?
You're in Luce County, right?
correct!
It looks wonderful, not exactly sure what I expected, but when you said you had some catching up with us I thought you were going to make some kind of announcement or bring us up on everything. Sorry to be a demanding clamoring public. I guess when you do this so well people start thinking its easy or something. All that said as usual I enjoyed this video. Thanks for a good job, well done.
I do have more to talk about in a couple future vids.
Have you ever encounter bears or coyotes?
Copper Harbor is my happy place.
hey - really neat location but you didn’t brush the pine needles away BEFORE starting fire.
why did fire not spread ? fire bad news this year.
The fire didn't spread because pine needles really don't burn all that great when they are in constant contact with damp sand. I didn't think there was much chance of any problems and there weren't any. I slept about 5 feet from the fire and kept it burning all night, no issues.
