Trail-Cam Mystery Visitor: Coyote or Wolf? 🐾

Lakes, Locks, and Listings: Another Day of Adventure

We started the day lakeside at Sandy Lake Lodge & Retreat, finishing lock swaps in the storage building. The lake was pure glass this morning — calm, quiet, and the perfect start to a frosty 28-degree Upper Peninsula morning. A little road hunting on the way in (and out) didn’t…
