Turn right and follow the Red Road southeast for about 5.8 miles as it reaches the north side of the Dead River Storage Basin. At the line between Champion (East Central) Township and Ishpeming (North Central) Township, the Red Road changes from County Road AAT to County Road GGT. It is still the Red Road. It will make a left curve heading generally north for about 2.3 miles when it will turn to the east (right) for the last 1.5 miles before it intersects with County Road 510. At County Road 510 turn right and go for about 5 miles south to the Noquemanon County Road 510 Trailhead. |

This segment is currently all a temporary road walk. We have been scouting through this area and hope to have a trail at least marked that hikers can use to navigate through in the near future.
Vehicle access for this segment is via:
-
US-41 2 miles west of Marquette to County Road 502 (Midway Drive). Follow County Road 502 for about 0.25 mile. Turn right unto County Road 510. The trailhead marker is 6 miles up on the east (right) side of the roadway.
-
Since this is all a road walk, one could drive to any portion, park along side the road and hike.
