M-203 rolls off into town, past row upon row of old company houses. Calumet has many well-stocked grocery stores and good restaurants. Take US-41 north to Ahmeek and watch for the Five Mile Point road to Eagle River. At Eagle River turn left onto M-26. It's about 10 more miles to Copper Harbor, the end of the road, which isn't a bad place to wind up.
Lake trout is a specialty.
Most people push their bike at least part way up. The view from the top is well worth the effort. Coast down Brockway and back into Eagle Harbor. Tours of an old copper mine are available here. Continue on Scenic US-41 for 10 miles of paved fairyland.
