2 comments about What's Cheap and Free in Michigan (Glovebox Guidebook).
- I can't believe I got suckered into buying this book! Everybody in it paid the authors to be in the book. When I went to get my money back they had already left town!
- This book is filled with 400 pages of free or low cost things to do in Michigan. I've passed around my copy to family members so many times that it is falling apart. We've made notations next to the things we have been to with our thoughts (like was it worth it or a waste of time) so that others who borrow the book can see where to go.
I paid full price for this back in 1998 and it has been well worth it.

1 comments about The Pigeon River Country: A Michigan Forest.
- This book covers a lot of topics.
It's a history of the Pigeon River Country, located about 35 miles south of the top of the "mitt" of Michigan, country that has remained wild after logging in this area was completed in the early part of the last century. More recently drilling for oil in the The Pigeon also caused some of the most notorious environmental battles that ever took place between a state, the oil industry, and environmentalists. Three different court cases made it to the Michigan Supreme Court and those rulings had a large impact on environmental law related to drilling in wild natural areas.
The book is also a trail guide, providing tables of fauna and flora that exist here. The Pigeon is the only woods east of the Mississippi that contains wild elk, which are pretty easy to track if you go in with a local or get some advice from the State's Dept. of Natural Resources officers who are stationed in the forest.
The Pigeon also contains three world-class trout fishing rivers, two of which are also navigable by more experienced canoeists. There is a major hiking / mtn. biking trail that runs through it as well, providing day and overnight wilderness experiences.
I've traveled all over the world, lived in CA twice and FL once, but I knew the Pigeon would draw me home to commune with the elk, coyotes, bears, the white pine and cedars, the Beech and Maple trees, and the bald eagle. The Pigeon is still a fairly wild place with many contiguous sections with neither roads or trails, allowing for a North Woods experience guaranteed to be people-free.
Franz' passion for the Pigeon rings through truly. Sometimes the book gets a little long-winded about the beauty of rain drops on a leaf, but if you read this on the trail, you'd never consider entering this tract of land without this wonderful guide as your friend to a better understanding the Pigeon River Country.
