    We went up there for Memorial weekend and had a great trip. I've been to the UP before, but the Keweenaw/Copper Harbor exceeded all the previous stuff I've seen. Living in MN I've done countless trips to the north shore, so it has a very similar vibe, but imo this was better, and not really that much longer of a drive.

    Just thought I'd share out some of the pics and vids.

    Nice. I did a 17 day trip last summer through the UP. Spent about a week in Keeweenaw. There’s a couple Mobtown stickers in popular places up there. First person to find them gets a Mobtown t-shirt.

    No. We did stop by there after we drove on the stamp sands, but I didn’t leave a sticker.

    Awesome pics man and thanks for sharing. Im headed up to copper harbor on the 29th any chance you can share whereabouts the trailhead is for the wooden bridge you have pictured? new to the off road world and having a hard time finding trail maps, everything i find is specified as quad or side by sides. TIA

    I just got back from the UP and wish I knew where this was as well.

    Also, since you're headed to Copper Harbor, I recommend going beyond and out to High Rock Bay and the Keweenaw Rocket Range. Just be warned, you may get some new pinstripes though.

    Those sound like some nice spots, will definitely check them out. Its time for the pavement princess to earn her stripes they just add character right? lol

    They make you feel bad until you remember that everyone knows she's no pavement princess now.

    One of my favorite camping spots in your cliff drive picture! As mentioned earlier in the thread what trail is that wooden bridge on? I've done a fair amount of wheeling in the Keweenaw and I've never seen it. Thanks!

    It’s been 3 years and no one has found the Mobtown stickers yet.
