Sce0eTy - Upper Michigan.
u point Of woodland scenery the Michigan
wilderness can not compare with the White
mountains or the Adirondacks. The great
effective feature Of height IL wanting, - the
elevation is rarely more than siS hundred feet
above the lake, and the general contour is
broken and rolling. The northern shore is much
solder. The forest southwest OF Portage lake 10
more than one hundred miles long, and has
escaped devastation by forest fires IL extends
INTO Wisconsin, and as far as went-abOut nfty
niies-conssts principally OF hard maple.
IL Is capable Of supplying the continent with
sugar Until some discoveries OF copper are
made I'm u, IT will probably remain one Of the
finest bodies Of woodland in the country. There
are many lovely little lakes and streams abound
ing with trout scattered through it. The east
ern portion contains many iinpenetrable swamps
evergrown with tafnarack and cedar. The west
ern portion of this great forest has less OF the
savage and forbidding aspect peculiar to north
ern woods. and Is comparatively open. The
road to OntoDagOn passes through it in one
direction, and is barely practicable for uncovered
wagons 1t Is worth enduring q long railroad
journey TO be able to drive forty miles through
trees with the consciousness that yon are leay-
