Take an evening trip to see the milkway on a clear night, it’s about an hour away but so worth the view if you can make it at night.

Come and see shooting stars, meteor showers and view the milky way. Lookup the rules, flashlights are discouraged. They recommend red filtered flashlights or taking clear plastic wrap and coloring it red to put over your flashlight.

If you like stars, check out the Headlands. It is just south of the Mackinac bridge, not far from St. Ignace. They sometimes have programs. Check their website. They also have some trails for hiking, snowshoeing or cross country skiing.

The Headlands was established in the late 1950s when Roger McCormick hired a helicopter and dropped 50lb. sacks of flour to mark the boundaries of a property he desired to purchase. The Park contains approximately 600 acres of pristine woodlands, more than two miles of undeveloped Lake Michigan shoreline and many species of rare and endangered plant life. Visitors to the Headlands may experience sightings of the many wild animals native to the area including: bald eagles, osprey, white tail deer, wild turkeys, coyotes and occasionally a black bear. Marked nature trails guide hikers, bicyclists, cross-country skiers, and nature photographers to experience the park throughout the changing seasons.
