New Highway US-2 To Be Open October 15
US-2 west of St. Ignace will be fully paved and open to traffic by October 15 from Epoufette to Gould City. The new route hugs the Lake Michigan shore, passes Epoufette and Naubinway, crosses Hiawatha Sportsman's club lands, and eliminates the Soo Line grade crossing west of Gilchrist, saving nine miles. The piece notes travel trends and midwestern slowdowns. Amateur travel expert Douglas Malcolm discusses regional patterns and expectations for late summer and overall travel declines. The piece closes with Manistique and Schoolcraft county celebrating the National Blueberry Festival and praising blueberry pie as a regional treasure.
