The Menominee river is the border between Wisconsin and Michigan near Niagara, WI.

We will stay at a campground called Tranquiul Vista near Pembine, WI. -- reservation made with Mary -- $15 per tent per night.

We must check in at the Menominee River Outpost at 9:00AM and the rafting trip starts at 10:00AM.
