No Fooling! A great April Hike with the Hiawatha Shore-to-Shore Chapter! We start out near the highest point in Chippewa County and end up looking at Whitefish Bay/Lake Superior. This is a beautiful area to hike, anytime of the year.

Meet at the Naomikong Overlook parking lot. We will park across the road, south of the overlook, at the overflow parking lot. Look for the sign at the roadside. From there, we will carpool to the Salt Point Road crossing of the NCT and hike north 5 miles past the Naomikong Pond Shelter. From the shelter to our cars is just over a third of a mile. If someone wanted to extend this hike, a couple more miles would bring you to The Shallows on Whitefish Bay after crossing the Naomikong River.

Find the Naomikong Overlook:
The Naomikong Overlook is found on the Curley Lewis Highway between Brimley and Paradise, on the south side of Whitefish Bay, north of Strongs, Michigan.
