USA 4-Peaks Loop, Michigan
The “4 Peaks” route is a well-known classic in Marquette, used for decades by runners, skiers, cyclists and hikers. It links the area’s four most distinctive summits (Hogback, Top of the World, Bareback and Sugarloaf) and offers wide-open views across a sea of leaves all the way to Lake Superior.
Photography Tips
