Mac Attack: Ryba’s Fudge from Mackinac Island, Michigan – Cakespy.com
This is the absolute smoothest fudge I have ever had. It is like silk on the tongue. It melts like ganache. It’s sweet, but not obnoxiously so. It begs you to have another bite. Although it’s so smooth that it’s not so much a bite as a gentle avalanche of sweetness in your mouth…

Sugar Loaf – Mackinac Island

The dramatic breccia mass rises 75 feet above the ground and is the largest of Mackinac Island’s many limestone stacks. 

Centuries ago a huge lake that geologist call Lake Algonquin covered all but the center of Mackinac Island.  Sugar Loaf was then a small, eroding island cut off from the surrounding land area.  When the water receded, the stack was left standing as a tower of rock.

Sugar Loaf via Wikipedia

Sugar Loaf is a 75-foot-high (23m) landlocked rock or stack in the interior of Mackinac Island in Lake Huron. Created by erosion during the period of postglacial Lake Algonquin, Sugar Loaf is the largest post-glacial erosion feature in the Straits of Mackinac.

The immense rock, which consists of resistant limestone breccia, was cut off from Ancient Mackinac Island or the Turtle’s Back by the glacial meltwaters of Lake Algonquin. Polar storms released by the retreating ice sheet created erosional forces much stronger than any existing today on the Great Lakes.

The rock lies within the boundaries of the Mackinac Island State Park near the junction of Crooked Tree Road and Sugar Loaf Road. It can be seen from Point Lookout, near the Island’s highest point. – >> Read More on Wikipedia >>

Arch Rock on Mackinac Island

Rising 146 feet above the water, Arch Rock is a natural curiosity which spans fifty feet as its widest point.  It was formed over thousands of years by wind and water eroding soft rock below, leaving only the hard breccia rock which forms the arch.

Arch Rock via Wikipedia

Arch Rock is a geologic formation on Mackinac Island in Michigan. It is a natural limestone arch formed during the Nipissing post-glacial period, a period of high Lake Huron levels following the end of the Wisconsin glaciation. To this day Arch Rock stands on the Lake Huron shoreline 146 feet (45 m) above the water.

Limestone breccia is not an ideal material for natural bridges, and this type of formation is quite rare in the North American Great Lakes region. The Native Americans saw Arch Rock as a place of numinous power, and told many stories and legends about it. >> Read More on Wikipedia >>
