Backpacking 42 Miles Along Michigan's Most Scenic Trail | Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore

Backpacking 42 Miles Along Michigan's Most Scenic Trail | Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore // This year, I set a goal to step outside my comfort zone and explore new trails beyond the West Coast. In this video, I take you along as I backpack 42 miles over 4 days and 3 nights through Michigan’s stunning Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, a section of the North Country Trail. Joining me on this adventure are Mary and Elissa - two amazing women from my online backpacking program, The Confident Solo Female Backpacker System. Together, we tackle early-season conditions, sandy campsites, scenic views of Lake Superior and some seriously "bougie" backcountry amenities like pit toilets, picnic tables, numerous garbage cans and potable water! From rain and mud on Day 1 to clear skies and jaw-dropping cliffside views by Day 3. This trip had it all! If you’re curious about backpacking in Michigan, prepping for an early-season trip or just want a virtual escape to the Upper Peninsula, this video is for you!
