1. Paulding Light Paulding
The Paulding Light is a light that appears in a valley outside Paulding, Michigan. Reports of the light have appeared since the 1960s, with popular folklore providing such explanations as ghosts, geologic activity, or swamp gas. In 2010, Syfy Channel's Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files conducted a paranormal investigation and concluded that the Paulding Light was unexplained. Michigan Tech students conducting a scientific investigation of the light in 2010 were able to see automobile headlights and tail lights when viewing the light through a telescope. They recreated the effect of the light by driving a car through a specific stretch of US Highway 45 .

2. Porcupine Mountains State Park Ontonagon
The Porcupine Mountains, or Porkies, are a group of small mountains spanning the northwestern Upper Peninsula of Michigan in Ontonagon and Gogebic counties, near the shore of Lake Superior. The Porcupine Mountains were named by the native Ojibwa people, supposedly because their silhouette had the shape of a crouching porcupine. They are home to the most extensive stand of old growth northern hardwood forest in North America west of the Adirondack Mountains, spanning at least 31,000 acres . In these virgin forests, sugar maple, American basswood, eastern hemlock, and yellow birch are the most abundant tree species. The area is part of the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park.

Bond Falls: Accessible U.P. Grandeur

First, here's what the Michigan DNR says:

Bond Falls is a scenic and popular waterfall in southern Ontonagon County. The falls are created as the Middle Branch of the Ontonagon River tumbles over a thick belt of fractured rock, dividing it into numerous small cascades. Total drop of the falls is approximately 50 feet. Currently, roadside parking and picnic tables are available near the top of the falls. An accessible boardwalk with six viewing locations has been added to this location.

That last bit of info makes this a very special natural spot for those with mobility issues. A gently sloping paved path leads down from the parking lot to a fenced boardwalk. The views here are mostly taken from those viewing locations along the boardwalk that rings the base of the falls. Steps on the west side and dirt/rock paths on the east provide routes up the sides of the falls.

The drop of Bond Falls, in the southwestern U.P., is equal to the drop of the more famous upper Tahquamenon Falls in the northeastern U.P., though not as wide. But at Bond Falls you have much better access to the base of the falls.

There were quite a few families visiting when this was recorded, with ages ranging from elderly to newborn. If you are in the region, consider taking someone who normally has difficulty visiting scenic spots to see Bond Falls. They say the negative ions created by waterfalls are good for us. So is helping others.
