The Pine is one of Michigan's best known paddles, and deservedly so

@lindbladet I REALLY want to do the Wolf. Someday...

Wonderful video, especially the history bits. Didn't know about the pre-Consumers history of the Dam. Now that it has been gone for a few years the river has healed itself nicely and the fast section to Low Bridge has extended and intensified a little. Unless you really look/know, it is hard to see where it was now. I have a few clips of the Pine on my channel too.

@lindbladet The Pine is rated 1-2. It can vary a bit though water levels are fairly stable being spring fed. The book "Canoeing Michigan Rivers" by Jerry Dennis and Craig Date is highly recommended.

@BuStFaCe The Sturgeon is faster, and has an eighty percent tip rate! But it is a far less interesting float both in terms of canoeing and especially scenery. It is a fast narrow channel with few rapids, you end up ramming your canoe head on into the banks on the tight bends. Go all the way into Burt lake for a nice swim after a stressful run. The nearby Pigeon is also nice, though access is difficult for it's fast stretches. The Pine is A1, but going to Baldwin for permits is a hassle.

@1stsmosh This video is of the Pine River up in Manistee county, north of Baldwin and US 10, Michigan. The Pine River you are talking about is in St. Louis, MI. Two completely different rivers.

Nice , I really like this Video, thanks for making it. I still try to paddle up the shoot at Peterson bridge. You can make it if you do it just right

Glad you enjoyed it. The Pine is my all time second most favorite river, after the Wolf in Wisconsin

It might, but I am a little skeptical, a strong class II for sure.

The Sturgeon is supposed to be faster, I've never paddled it yet but my friend said the Pine was more challenging. Me and a big group do the Pine every July and camp in the forest and drink much beer.

Both rivers are great paddles, but I would rate the pine a little faster
