the yellowdog area of the hurons is some of the most beautiful area in the u.p. sure would be a shame to see it messed with. considering Fords Huron Mtn Club owns the rest of it

It sure is one of the most beautiful stretches in Michigan. Went trout fishing there the last two years. Last year I bought a CD that was recorded live in Marquette all money went to the Yellow Dog Water Shed Project. The first thing they have done is purchase the land around Pinnacles falls. One of the nicer falls in michigan is now guaranteed to be enjoyed by the public for years. The cd is a double disc. It is mostly folk and has a wide variety of bands. It actually is very good. If anyone has ever seen a band in Marquette you know that it is top notch. I'll try to find a link but if you want to make a difference purchase the cd and help save the water shed.;)
