Granted, Copper Harbor is a long way from everything… but with such stellar mountain biking and creative trail building, this location needs to be recognized! Unfortunately, if you want to make a week of it, you won’t be able to hangout solely in Copper Harbor: there’s just not enough trail. Instead, you’ll need to add in Houghton and Marquette to truly do the Upper Peninsula justice.
But a long weekend of rippin’ ridin’ in the Northwoods? Yup, Copper Harbor has you covered!
