It's July 3rd but you would think it is July 4th here in the Les Cheneaux Islands, on the north shore of Lake Huron. I can hear fireworks in all directions.
The Les Cheneaux (Snow Islands) are beautiful with channels running between the islands. There are excellent, protected anchorages around a number of the islands. In 2009 I anchored out in Government Bay, on Government Island, which is a favorite for many boaters, who stop over in the Les Cheneaux Islands.
Tonight I'm staying docked, at a friends boathouse on Island #8, one of only two islands, out of a total of 36 islands, in the Les Cheneauxs, you can drive to. The other island that has road access is Hill Island. Access to the other 34 islands is by boat only. Cedarville & Hessel, Michigan are the two main towns in the Les Cheneauxs.
I've attached a few pictures. The first is of Ticaboo docked on Island #8 and looking across the channel to Coryell Island and a number of boat houses along the shoreline. The second picture is of a family kayaking in the channel between Island #8 and Coryell Island.
This is a good site to spent time on .I just stumbled upon your informative blog and wanted to say that I have really enjoyed reading your blog posts.
