Michigan Laws?
I will be making a trip to Michigan's upper peninsula by way of Indiana. Are there any unique concealed carry laws or anything one should be aware of there?
Also can anyone suggest anything as a "must see or do" while there. Fishing, any hunting?
Any ideas will be appreciated.

Michigan's UP is fabulous! Lots of water for fishing. Excellent hunting can be found for partridge, woodcock, ducks, black bear and a few whitetails.
There is much to see and do. If you like good living, Grand Hotel on Mackinaw Island is wonderful. Sault Saint Marie has the locks, Whitefish Point (near the resting place of the Edmund Fitzgearld) has the shipwreck museum. Moving west across the UP there are miles of wilderness timber, many shipwrecks, copper mines, iron mines, micro breweries, and friendly, rugged people. The Keweenaw Peninsula often has cumulative total snowfall exceeding 20ft.
To learn more check out the chamber of commerce websites for Keweenaw Peninsula, Marquette, Sault Saint Marie, and St Ignace and you find plenty to enjoy.
