Sounds pretty awesome. I'd love to do a 2 or 3 day trip in August. I'm putting this on my list.Alright so @Attn2Detail and I ran the “7 Hour Plane Crash Trail” the past two days. We weren’t exactly sure what to expect and had limited time so we started a little north of the trailhead, off of Hwy 70 near Alvin, WI. Where we started was extremely muddy to the point that he got his truck stuck and we had to snatch him out lol. It was impassable without at least one winch and possibly more. No way these guys in stock vehicles aka the jeep renegade guy could have done this portion. So we back tracked and went a little north. The trail is a good combination of technical off-roading and gravel, sand, and dirt roads. Some of it is very bumpy and we did have to use a saw a few times. We skipped a portion of it near Houghton, MI and north so that we could get to High Rock Point before it was too dark. There are YouTube video of high rock point and it is amazing. That’s where we camped. Beware, from the end of the highway there is a logging road about 10 miles long to get to the point, and about 3 miles of it you cannot go any faster than 5mph due to ruts and rocks. Takes at least 45 mins. Totally worth it though. In the morning we went back south and to the town called Gay on the southern portion of the peninsula. There is a huge “beach” there that is leftover sediment from the copper miners. It’s basically dunes and it’s awesome. We then drove to Porcupine Mountains via roadways and went to the top of those. Pretty cool… feels like the smokies if you’ve ever been there. From there we drove to Eagle River for dinner then to Essentially where we started the trail and we finished the beginning portion of the trail that we initially skipped, doing it backwards. This was pretty smooth trail but was extremely fun.
All in all, totally do-able In two days but 3 would be awesome. We had to cut short due to the storms last night. Guys have said they did this On stock vehicles and we think this is a lie and/or they skipped portions or busted their sh** Tires and suspension seem necessary.
Can’t wait to run it again!!
