Turnip Rock

Port Austin

Paddle seven miles through Lake Huron's crystal-clear waters to find a stone turnip improbably balanced on a skinny stem. The kayak journey is half the thrill: wind and waves can make it a workout, but the surreal rock formation waiting at the end feels like discovering a secret.
