Come join us on a great hike with great people!

The Ni-Miikanaake Chapter is hosting a hike and cookout at the Presque Isle River in the Porkies on Saturday, Sep 12.

Meet at the Presque Isle River Parking Area at 10am CST, we will shuttle hikers to the Speaker’s Trailhead for a 3-mile hike back to the Presque Isle River Parking area. We’ll wrap up the fun with a cookout, potluck and some laughs.

We’ll start the actual hike about 10:20 (CST.)

Bring water, snacks, bug repellent (although insects have not been a problem lately) and your dog if you like. The hike is mostly flat terrain, with a biggish ravine near the end. Fall color should be starting

Directions to the parking lot:

  • From the intersection of Hwy 2 and M-28 in Wakefield, go east on M-28, Just out of Wakefield, take Hwy 519 north all the way to the very end in the Porkies. The day area parking lot is to the right at the very end. Distance on Hwy 519 is about 18 miles.
