We returned to Copper Harbor a couple of days later. We drove the Bronco up and down M26 to see the coastline and hit some of the local spots. I'd have to say 26 is one of the favorite roads I've ever driven... the scenery is amazing and the Bronco just soaks up the hills and curves. This road is where I really fell in love with the powertrain and suspension dynamics of the Bronco.
There are lots of places to stop along M26. The geology in this area is volcanic--a Precambrian lava flow created it, supposedly the largest such lava flow that ever happened anywhere on earth. It makes for a very unexpected experience if you haven't ever been up here before.
The Minnetonka in Copper Harbor is a nice close place to stay if you're taking the Isle Royale ferry, and they will let you park for free while you're over at Isle Royale. There's a good gift shop there (and at several other spots in town) for souvenirs.
The Eagle Harbor Inn had good food and a good vibe. The pie here was really good too and you can get it to go. There are several really good restaurants in Copper Harbor as well.
This place had great food too and was out in the middle of nowhere. Needed a reservation but it had an unimpeded 180 degree view from our table of Lake Superior.
