One cold November, several of the guys in my family went to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for a few days of deer hunting. We stayed in the southern portion of the U.P. not far from Little Bay De Noc. In between hunting, I spent some time taking photos in the local area and even going as far as Lake Superior. This post isn't about the hunting itself, but highlights the scenery we experienced during our trip. This trip is even more special to me now because my late grandfather was one of the guys along on this hunt.

These photos were taken before digital cameras were prevalent. At the time, I used a Canon SLR and 35mm film. You may notice some imperfections in the photos as I had to scan each of them for this post.
