Lake of the Clouds: A Misty Morning Memory in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula
A Journey into the Wilderness
There’s something magical about waking up early, packing your gear, and heading into the heart of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. On a quiet summer morning, I drove my red Jeep Wrangler up winding roads through the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park, chasing a moment I hoped to capture — one that would later become a centerpiece of my MI Puzzles collection.
The View That Takes Your Breath Away
Lake of the Clouds is tucked between ancient ridges, surrounded by old-growth forest and untouched wilderness. As I arrived, the sun was just beginning to rise, casting a golden hue across the landscape. Fog drifted gently above the treetops, creating a scene so tranquil and surreal it felt like stepping into a dream.
I set up my tripod at the overlook, carefully framing the shot to capture the lake’s stillness and the mist’s quiet dance. That photo — taken in that peaceful, fleeting moment — is now immortalized in a 1000-piece puzzle that invites others to experience the same sense of wonder.
