This piece on one of the stranger attractions to be found in the Upper Peninsula comes from a Detroit Free Press writer. 

Excerpt: Alex Fagotti sat under a tree, holding a shotgun, waiting in the darkness for the thieves to return.

He was all alone. Except for the ghosts watching from the woods.

Fagotti owns Prospector’s Paradise, a rocks and minerals store along U.S.-41 in the northern tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula, an area so remote and isolated, a sign along the highway calls it “The Last Place on Earth.”
