    This area must be beautiful in the autumn. Summer hiking can be warm and humid, and bugs can be hell, as this video illustrates

    That's a super awesome section, some of the most interesting and rugged in the UP! I'm section hiking the UP, so I appreciate this video. Blowdown in McCormick is a constant!

    I have a whole new appreciation for bug spray, dope, permethrin or whatever. Up there West Nile probably isn't a worry but here in the flat lands watch out. Looks like a beautiful place to hike. Excellent video.

      Thank you! The bugs can be rough in the UP, that’s for sure.

      Anywhere in the Great Lakes region in the spring and summer is swarming with mosquitos and other bugs. Wait until September or October, or even November.

    I think that drop off / climb as you transition between roadwalk and trail, north of the Silver Lake Basin, is the most in terms of elevation change in one go along the trail in the UP.
    That’s what my legs and lungs would tell you, in any case.

    Found this video doing research for a hike im planning in October. I'm starting on the west side of the U.P. and going to the southern end of the Manistee National Forest. MI mile 0 to 906 which is where I live. Glad to at least see some sections on video from this year. And I'm glad I decided to go in the in fall/ start of winter, I hate the bugs and dont want to deal with that for that long. Thanks for the coverage of the trail and great video, gonna be checking out the pictured rocks video next.

      Hi, I'm currently on the NCT. Taking a short break in Trout Creek B4 heading back out. Curious as to how it was for you hiking in November?

    Its November 2023. Would you hike this portion of trail this time of year? We've had a little snow and its definitely cold - i am prepared for winter camping, but would appreciate your opinion

    • @jonallenoutside

      Yes, although be aware of deer hunting starting on the 15th.

    Also, thanks for the video. Im planning a hike on that section of trail to raise money for st judes im going all the way to marquette, though. This is the only video that I've seen on this section except one that did it in winter, but that doesn't help me.

    Are you aloud to just set up camp anywhere near the trail? I'm planning a trip and that's our plan just didn't know what rules there are. Obviously we will follow leave no trace rules.

    What a difference 2 weeks makes for the bugs on the NCT. Your last trip a few weeks ago was bug free and now... Those bugs will now last to mid August. Like I said a few weeks ago in the comments--go early or go late.

    • @jonallenoutside
      @jonallenoutside  2 года назад

      Thought we could sneak one more hike in without the bugs being too bad. Nope!
