Marquette is where a lot of this started, and it is still the town we measure other towns against.

These videos cover the Festival of the Angry Bear, which is how the Upper Peninsula celebrates surviving another winter, the climb up Sugar Loaf Mountain for two views of Lake Superior, the biggest cinnamon roll either of us has ever seen, and a day of cliff jumping and Blackstone cookouts.
