* Econo Foods > Walmart > Pat's Foods & Festival Foods. {{Note\|Jim's is a good place for quick food if you don't have a car. Erickson's Feed and Seed exists, but it's not that great.}} I don't see a reason to Erikson's Feed and Seed. * Bread Loafers Bakery has amazing breads (787 Market St, Hancock, MI 49930) ** Marquette, MI. It has all the good food. * Schmidt's sells wings on Thursday for cheap~~. Get there before 8pm or you'll wait an hour for your wings~~. (100 Canal Rd, Houghton, MI 49931) {{Important\|Get to Schmidt's before 8pm or you'll wait an hour for your wings.}} * Nutini's does trivia on Thursday at 8pm (or sometimes 9pm~~). The place hasn't been renovated since the 70s, but if you win a round you get a $10 waiver for food (tip: you won't win, people are good at trivia~~). (321 Quincy St, Hancock, MI) {{Note\|The place hasn't been renovated since the 70s, but if you win a round you get a $10 waiver for food. Pro tip: you won't win, people are good at trivia, but it's a fun time nonetheless.}} = Outdoors = I have to assume you have Adam's Adventure guide. And if you don't, you're probably not part of Outdoor 'Venture Crew, the superior camping club in Michigan Tech. * Porcupine mountains ~~and cliff drive are~~is top tier. ** Drive past walmart and keep going until the road ends. * Cliff drive is a good hiking spot. ** Drive past Calumet and there'll be a sign that says "Cliff Drive", then park on one of the outings. You may need to bring boots if it's not winter. * Breaker's is a nice place and there will be a lot of people there on O-week. ** Drive past Schmidt's and keep going until the roads ends. * Gay beach is a place, but it's pretty shitty outside of the novelty saying you've been to Gay beach. *{{Note\|Don't go to the bars in Gay. The locals ~~there~~here don't like university students because they made too many jokes about Gay and now they're grumpy.}} Ask around for the following waterfalls ** Douglass-Houghton falls * Jampot is near Eagle River and sells really good jam. It's a must visit. They close once the harvest is done. * During Fall, Covered Road is a very beautiful road. ** On the way to Breaker's, take a left onto A-63. There should be a sign that says "Covered Road", follow this. * Quincy Mine tour is actually worth the money to do it. * [https://www.copperdog150.com/ Copper Dog 150] is a sled-dog race in Calumet. * Northern Lights ([https://www.mtu.edu/tour/copper-country/northern-lights/ MTU's page] gives really good tips ([https://archive.ph/6osvU archived])) * Copper Harbor is a beautiful place to go. Drive up Brockway for the best position to see the Northern lights. Brockway in Copper Harbor is the best place. Breaker's is fine, but not ideal. ** Tip: Use long exposure to get a more green northern lights picture. * The Rosza hosts a lot of good festivals. I recommend the Nutcracker.
