Da Yoopers Tourist Trap
Da Yoopers Tourist Trap in Ishpeming, Michigan. Traveling is a way to experience new places and locations. If you can grab a few laughs along the way … that is where memories are made. Nobody can ever take away your experiences. Everything else can be stripped away in a heartbeat. Your memories and experiences cannot be taken from you. Unless you suffer from dementia – and then you have picture proof 🙂
2nd Stop on Trip
This is the second stop on our no idea where we are going in Michigan getaway. Our first stop was a bathroom pit stop that yielded a two-hour hike at Canyon Falls.

For those unfamiliar, this place is centered around a music group that has a few funny songs. The most notable song is The Second Week of Deer Camp.

The Tourist Trap plays into some of the songs and most certainly, the Yooper stereotypical way of life.
There is so much to see in this cabin and I was in stitches laughing. Is this how deer camp works husband?
There are a few bush buggies on the property that are pretty interesting. A bush buggy according to the sign it is anything made up of junk that ran.
A sign off in the woods let’s you know that the da lummakaka likes to eat children. Keep them close.
