Often referred to as "The Tunnel of Trees," M-119 is considered by many to be one of Michigan's most beautiful drives. Starting at Bay View in Petoskey, the road winds through Harbor Springs and up the coast for 28 miles until it ends in the peaceful little community of Cross Village. The idea to do a audio tour of this heritage highway came to me from a friend who had taken an audio tour in Hawaii called The Road to Hana. The idea congealed for a couple of years before the project got underway. The result is an 80-minute tour which includes stories and songs from the people who work, live and play along this beautiful stretch of road. This project is a few years old so we do not recommend that you rely on it for business information, but the stories and the history are timeless.
Real People Media wants to share this wonderful road with you by offering the tour as a free audio download or on your computer. Enjoy this beautiful drive in early May when the woods are full of trillium and the ponds are alive with the sound of spring peepers. If you like the program, please consider making a donation to Real People Media. Real People Media recorded all the interviews and narration, edited the program and completed all graphic design work with no compensation. We did this because we value the stories and history of this scenic highway and feel it is important to record and share this with the community. However, this is not without cost. We spent nearly $8,000 on this production. Your donation allows us to produce future works and to help others share their stories. We invite you to share your thoughts about the project below or in a private email message. For more information about the project, visit our Success Stories at the tab above.
