Lights of Northern Lake Huron Tour

In the days before ship-to-shore radio and global positioning systems, lighthouses were the only signposts guiding travelers on the Great Lakes. If you couldn’t see them or the stars and sun, you were driving blind. This self-guided driving tour encompasses 20 key maritime destinations while following the journey of the Durston during the great storm of 1913. The tour follows the coastline of Northern Lake Huron from Au Gres to Mackinaw City. Many of the destinations are located in Alpena and Presque Isle Counties. You can check out the tour by clicking on the following:
