Date Posted: 18:01:01 02/23/06 Thu In reply to: Grapenuts 's message, "Any events planned for summer yet?" on 11:20:59 02/16/06 Thu I believe I have identified a ~100 mile (10 day-ish) route to travel by canoe or kayak from Traverse City to Cheyboygan (look at a map). The idea is to take Lake Michigan out of TC to the mouth of Elk Lake, down to Skegmog Lake and over the Chain O’ Lakes water trail (link #1) on up to St. Clair Lake. There, we have a 3 mile portage (vehicle assist?) to the south arm of Lake Charlevoix. We take Lake Charlevoix over to Horton Bay. There we have another 3 mile portage (vehicle assist?) over to Walloon Lake. From Walloon, we take Bear Creek down to Petoskey. At Petoskey we go 2.5 miles down the coast of Lake Michigan to hook up w/ the 42 mile Inland Water Route to get to Cheboygan (link #2). We could do this all at once or in several blocks when we could take our time & add some climbing, mtn biking, etc. BTW, I’m not sure it’s actually possible, because as far as I can tell we’d be the first to do it. Game on, who wants to plan this w/ me? http://www.fishweb.com/maps/antrim/chain-o-lakes/index.html http://www.ferris.edu/htmls/academics/course.offerings/hillm/MYWEB7/Personal/TOPINABEE/Topinabee%20Pics.htm [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
