Destination Michigan | Explore Michigan's Natural Wonders

On this episode of Destination Michigan, we will satisfy your curiosity about the forming of our Michigan mitten. Join us as we go back billions of years and explore how the glaciers carved the Great Lakes Basin giving Michigan its trademark shape. We’ll examine the rock walls and earth cracks inside the geological oddity that is the Mystery Valley Karst Preserve in Alpena. Then it’s off to Empire and a visit to Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore where the force of the Great Lakes keeps the dunes in a state of constant change. Finally, we’ll also explore the deep human connection to Michigan’s natural landscape with visits to Thunder Bay and the Odawa Council Trees near Charlevoix.

Putting this place on my bucket list. Thank you for showing this to us.

Really informative episode. The "science" is much more easily understood when seeing these natural wonders than in a classroom setting. And the Odawa Council Trees segment - I can understand why that's such an important landmark.
