HUNTERS POINT

Hunter’s Point Park is a special place to Copper Harbor residents as well as visitors to the area. Access to the point was in jeopardy a few of years ago when a development company purchased it along with the surrounding property. It is now a Township Park and continues to be open to the public.

Hunter’s Point is bursting with natural wonders. Flora is abundant; wildflowers, lichen, mosses, cedars, hardwoods and pines. Otters, martins, beavers, deer, squirrels, chipmunks and various other wildlife enjoy the area too. The geological formations are special on the point. The basalt in this area is the oldest rock on earth-essentially, the earths crust. It’s like a window to the past.

Hunters Point park is just under a 10 acre parcel of land with 4000+ feet of shoreline.  It is  a great spot to explore and stretch your legs.  There are interesting rock formations to examine and lots of birds and other wildlife scurrying about.

The upper peninsula of Michigan is a splendor of color to behold in the Autumn season.  It was also windy when we were there.  I didn’t get to fly my drone as much as I would have liked, but did manage to get in the air a few time when the wind calmed down for a moment.  Hunters Point was one of those calms spots…for a moment.
