I've been all over the world - nothing really compares to the UP for me. Love it.

Absolutely world class walleye and small mouth fishing. Good grouse, small game, trapping and where I am - deer. As in I see double digit deer every day I am out. Usually in rifle season I'm tagged out by day 3 after having passed up 3-5 bucks. BUT I hunt banana belt.

People in and from the Yoop sure aren't the same as MI folks from the LP and they definitely aren't like those in WI. The UP has a very....."libertarian" feel for me. So long as you're not really hurting anyone - folks stay out of your business. There's only 2 things that will really raise an eye brow - asking to borrow a deer rifle or a chainsaw. You're expected to have your own.

Other than that - it's paradise on earth. Waterfalls, large timber, fishing, swimming, kayaking, boating, SxS adventure, snowmobiling etc.
