Why you should go…

Pictured Rocks runs 42 miles along Lake Superior in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, with multicolored sandstone cliffs rising up to 200 feet above the water. You can hike nearly 100 miles of trails, kayak or boat below the cliffs, walk to waterfalls such as Munising Falls and Sable Falls, and climb the Grand Sable Dunes. Designated in 1966 as the country's first national lakeshore, it stays open all year, though snow closes most roads in winter.
