I finally decided to get out...my first time this spring! I went to my usual standby location when I can't decide where to go - Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness area just north of Ludington.
I'm not much of a writer, so here's a quick overview.
I left after work and arrived around 9:30PM. I hiked the north route, passing Nordhouse Lake and bushwacked into a nice spot in the woods. After a quick small fire, I turned in for the night. Low was around 32°.
The next day, I continued north along the ridge then turned towards the beach. Beautiful sunny weather near 60°. Set up on a small ridge in the woods (I learned not to set up close to the beach in the sand and wind like everyone else seems to since comfort > a nice view)
I found a TON of morel mushrooms...probably 50 just around my hammock without even noticing them at first. Luckily I ran into some guys from Ohio that had some butter and cooked a few up for me.
Processing firewood, dinner, fire, Beam & coke, watch sunset, etc.
One of the guys from Ohio was in a hammock and I also saw another group with a few hammocks. Good times!!
