Ride VI (Copper Harbor to Houghton)

Copper Harbor

Lac La Belle-Gay Road
Lac La Belle-Gay Road

From Copper Harbor take US-41 south for 10 miles to the Lac La Belle Road. This is a long downhill, very steep at the bottom. Bear left for a 3 mile trip to the beautiful sand beach of Bete Grise. Return to Lac La Belle and head south at the fork along the county road. This road is fairly flat and smooth. On a clear day there are views of the Huron Mountains across Keweenaw Bay. 25 miles later you reach the town of Gay, population 43. Head west to Lake Linden, where M-26, a two-lake highway with moderate traffic takes you to Hancock.
