    Minnesota or Michigan. These states have some of the best Great Lakes shoreline and are less inhabited in their north ends. If the UP counted as it’s own state, I’d say the UP.

      Agree that the UP is top shelf. Though Wisconsin has beautiful landscape as well.

      Come to think of it, Minnesota already has a National park too (Voyagers). It’s funny because I know from Minnesota goes to the boundary waters and I hardly hear people talk about Voyagers.

        Voyagers is on a road trip plan of mine - I basically found it by looking at Google maps, not from a web search (which I had done before just looking around).

      I would have to agree. All the wilderness that is out there along with changing environments and terrain really makes for some amazing scenery as well as places for wildlife to really blossom.

      Seconding Michigan. We live in MO and loved MI so much it’s now an annual trip. We love the Crystal Lake area and it’s a great springboard for a trip to the UP and Canada.

      It’s absolutely insane to think about the ecological destruction of the Midwest. We used to have bison around literally everywhere.

      Really if just make Upper the National Park it gets the job done and there’s still a whole state left.
