ENTERING the eastern gate
IA way to the Upper PENN

across the Straits of Mackinac,
visitors find an area rich in his
torical lore-from the grave OF

Immediately in and near st.
Ignace are scenic spots to de-
light camera enthusiasts. Back
of the Homestead Cafe is st.
Anthony's Rock, where many
Unusual pictures can be taken,

be obtained from an observation
post there.
Beyond Castle Rock, on the

visitors and still exhibiting some
of the equipment of early days.
