How Many Trips do you Make Across the Mackinac Bridge in a Year?
May 18, 2008 | Leave a comment
Naturally, there is going to be a bell curve on this graph. Those who live in Ironwood aren’t going to make nearly as many trips across the bridge as those living in St. Ignace or Sault Ste Marie. Though it looks like most people average between 2 to 5 round trips across the bridge in a year.

Lori, I agree that the Eagle River/Eagle Harbor area is beautiful. We have many guests of our hotel who live in that area. We do a great “Yooper” business. If you and your family are ever in need of a accommodations, give us a try.

We went to the St. Ignace/Sault Ste. Marie area. I thought that must be what Heaven looks like. Because I’m from Muskegon MI. In the U.P. the grass is so vividly green and the flowers are such a vivid color. It was just beautiful!
