COPPER HARBOR MICH TRIP

[Rick Gorter]

Gene Eddleston and I are planning a 3-day trip to Copper Harbor MI on July 12-14, 2019. We will leave on Friday and ride to a resort where we will stay 2 nights (Friday the 12th and Saturday the 13th). On Saturday we will ride through the Porcupine mountains, up to Copper Harbor for lunch, and then back to the resort. We will return home on Sunday.

We are staying at The Konteka Black Bear Resort, 400 Main St, White Pine, MI (thekonteka.com) (906) 885-5170. The Konteka has 16 double queen motel rooms, a gift shop and convenience store, a restaurant, a lounge, a bowling alley, and a single gas pump. Rooms are $99/night all in. They have a 7-day cancellation policy.

If you are interested, make your reservations now since this area gets busy in the summertime. Contact Gene or me if you have questions.
