  • I didn’t know if you knew about this place. If you take the more scenic byway drive (m-26) on our way from Baraga to Copper Harbor you’ll pass by the Jam Pot. It’s a local favorite and often they sell out by early afternoon. I’m not sure what the parking is like because they’ve expanded since I was there last time but I was going to call them and see or check google earth. They make the largest and best muffins I’ve ever had ! – Amy
