Until I saw these overhead photos snapped by 906 Images, I didn’t realize how large Presque Isle Park in Marquette, is. 906 Images describes it as expansive, which is the perfect word to portray the size of this park. And of course Presque Isle Park includes the Blackrocks, where the folks who are brave enough, jump off into Lake Superior. If you’re looking at these photos and thinking that it’s not really all that big, then look closer at the second, third and fourth photos and find the paddleboarder in each shot, that will help you appreciate the size of the area.

We join CDR Adventures for a look at both Presque Isle Park and the Blackrocks from on land. He said it was a great way to start the morning with a stroll down the pier and a short cliff hike to the famous Blackrocks cliff jumping area. Anyone want to take the leap?

I must have hit a button and it erased everything I
just typed. lol Beautiful pics and nice video, take
care when out on that break wall, especially on how
fast the weather and winds can change.

Leaving tomorrow, camping our way U.P., with
friends. This is better than Christmas for me! I'll
try and check in by phone, I'm not taking my laptop.
Looking forward to this trip if I haven't mention it
before. lol

Beautiful pictures but I would not
be out on that lake on a paddle
board. I have far too much respect
for Mother Superior!

Safe travels UC. I know how
anxious you are to get here. But
have fun on the way. Lots of
things to see. And Ron says he's
doing pretty well. Only needs pt
every other week now. He thanks
you for asking

Blackrocks is such a cool place. We go there often when the

waves are crashing but are careful not to get too close to the

edges. Our kids and grandkids love jumping off the rocks. Even

my husband did it a few years ago at 75 years young. Not me! It

was fun to see an arial view.

I'm with you, Laurie. I'm not that
great of a swimmer. And heights
scare me.
