Lake of the Clouds is home to my second favorite trail in Michigan; the escarpment trail. You start your hike at this beautiful view of Lake of the Clouds and hike along the escarpment, the whole length of the lake, giving you so many great panoramic views. Interesting fact; the deepest part of the lake is only 10 feet!
This was the first time I visited Muskegon Lighthouse, I parked in the parking lot knowing I was in the right place but still couldn't see the lighthouse. It was only until I got about 10 feet away from it I could actually see it for the first time. Seeing the lighthouse for the first time this way, reminds me how sailors felt seeing it many years ago; knowing they were finally in a safe harbor.
Point Iroquois Lighthouse near Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan gives light to all freighter's coming through the Soo Locks. Even on a very rainy day this lighthouse showed its beauty as it was surrounded by fall foliage. I would love to go back to this Lighthouse on a warmer, drier day and sit and watch the freighters come through.
