We are in Indian River all the time, hope to check out the routes you come up with. Indian River is what we call our headquarters, lol. We do spend a lot more of our time on the 50" or less as opposed the the seasonal roads and routes.
Thanks...wasn't sure if you could get all the way across on trail 14. I know you can take the Northwestern to Big Eric's and go to Skanee@@michiganinteractive
Enjoyed the video, we always like to riding the UP. However the uvt, atv trails are sometimes different from snowmobile trails. How do you plan your routes. What maping sustem are you using ? We are in the process of planning a large loop in the western UP. not a lot of information available on trails or back roads legal for utv from central UP over to the west. I've tried to see approximately where you are on your rides but the trails shown even the maps on the fishweb site are lacking real detail. I'm guessing your not always on an actual atv trail which makes it harder to plan a route. Any help ?
I’d like to ride this route in a few weeks for me and my fiancés honeymoon with my enduro and her quad. Would like to know more info on where to start out, maybe a map, to get to Lake Superior and back to big bay.
It seems so sometimes, but no. I'm the leader of a riding club, Michigan Treadheads. I also belong to a couple of other clubs and have developed trails in northern, currently working on five routes for the Indian River area. I started an outdoor e-zine covering Northern Michigan 28 years ago so I do a lot of exploring.

Did you take trail 14 from Big Bay to L'Anse? Been on that trail many times in winter but didn't know if it's legal to ride on ORV's.
We took some of the trail on the way back. We didn't take any trail in the morning.

Most of the time we're not on an official trail. Best resource for the Western u.p. is mitrale.com
Very nice video!
Where did you stay? Can you share your route?

@@michiganinteractiveI’m interested in riding this same route also. But I can’t get your link for the GPX file to load. Do I have to be a member?
@@bencappon5811 it's a GPX file. It's not going to open up until you load it into a GPS. When you click on the link it's going to want you to save it.
@@bencappon5811 normally I don't share it with anybody but members so it would be nice if you become one.

Are you a guide? Would like to ride the routes you show.

Dave, thanks for sharing the adventures. Bittersweet not being able to continue with my favorite hobby.
