- We visit a lonely karst preserve near Posen, Michigan in Presque Isle County. The Mystery Valley Karst Preserve is a fascinating place with evidence of a history dating back about 400 million years.
We take a look at cracks in the earth, collapsed valley and a disappearing lake.

As a native Michigander and Great Lakes lover/aficionado I just love your content. So many memories, plus a lot of stuff I never knew. Like this one - Mystery Valley. :)
Awesome! Thank you!
This channel is so, so cool! I'm from Michigan and seeing the history of my state laid out like this is super interesting! Love it! 💚
Awesome! Thank you!
Great video, very informative and interesting as well ‼️
You two make a great team and your humorous antidotes are priceless ‼️ Thank you for sharing and Take Care 👍🏻🇺🇸
Excellent channel. Exploring is the most fun. We make our own adventures in this life. Keep having fun and making videos!
Geology is always fun! I’m a little scared of the swallow hole 😳
It IS a little unsettling. . .
I just love youz twoz!! So glad I discovered your channel! I'm still plodding through back episodes but with great joy! 🤗
Another awesome video!! I am always so excited to see a new video posted.
Very cool! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Thought I had a subscription but didn’t and had to fix that. This is such an interesting channel with pleasant walk in the woods storytelling that takes me gaway from all the craziness of life. You two are the embodiment of good things about my neighbor to the north that I’ve always found many reasons to visit. Now many more. Thank you.
Glad you got subscribed!
You are right, geology is fun and I love learning more about our beautiful state. Thank you.
Great video! I half expected a shot of Chuck in spelunking gear heading towards the swallow hole with Poppins dragging him back with ropes. Fascinating place though.
😂😂
Thank you and Pippins for all the great content! I am a Michigander with a wandering soul. Been watching for places to check out myself. So thank you!!!!!!!!! Love peace and safe travels!
Poppins****** lol my bad
on that note....great Halloween costume idea Poppy long stalkings !
LOL!
Thanks! Glad to have you here!
As a fellow Michigander (Charlevoix area) I appreciate all of your videos!! So informative and it’s just so awesome learning something new every time 😊
Thank You. I loved your talk. 👋
I’m always learning from your great videos! Thank you for sharing your adventures and making it interesting.
Geology is interesting. I had no idea that there was any rock in the LP. Thanks as always for your adventures.
This was so cool to watch! I was just up close to Posen last fall and didn't even know this was here. What a great place for a hike! Always enjoy your gius' adventures!
Awww, thanks Lady of the Lake!! (such a cool name ;-)
@@RestlessViking thank you! It was a nickname from an old friend and just kinda stuck.
I have lived in Presque Isle county most of my life. And yet again I have been shown to go out and explore. Well I learned a lot thanks to you and Poppins! I have been to the park and the sinkholes doing repelling though frowned upon but I did not know the history there
Nice to learn about this area that I have not been to yet. Have you two been to the Fiborn quarry and the Hendrie River caves near Rexton in the UP? A very similar situation happening there as a karst. We used to go exploring there back in the 80s. Love your channel. ✌️
I’ve been going to Sunken Lake, which is on the other side of mystery Valley to camp since I was in diapers and I am now 62. I raised my son there and now they’re raising their children there in the campground on weekends marvelous mysterious place.
we have a place called disappering lake in a glacial valley. it stopped disappearing. Prob drains to Ontario.
Posen is not far from where I live, never heard about this but now I'm gonna go see this. Love the videos, gives me new places to see sometimes, like this
It would be really interesting to have someone use a really powerful ground penetrating radar system there, to see if there are any voids/caverns close enough to the surface(or open enough) to register! That, or perhaps use sonic to see if major changes in density under the surface indicate any large voids!
You teach me so much about my state! Thank you.
Another fascinating and well done presentation. But, one question. I know you put in some facts about yourselves in your videos, but have you ever considered adding a little more detail about your backgrounds to one of your videos?
I'm sure I'm not alone as one of your fans who would like to know a little bit more about your background (unless you're in the witness protection program or are secretly working for the CIA).
You got me on this one. My best lived in Millersburg for many years, and I used to spend summers at Hubbard Lake. But I hadn't heard about "Mystery Valley". Thank You for the content. And watch where you step!
We have some videos posted with our background. As time goes on, we add more as it relates to our background. We also have a comprehensive article on our website that covers are backgrounds in depth.

Did you guys go to the other sinkholes in this area? There are quite a few! We live not far from here and visit often!
We have visited a few others in the past. The area is full of em!
#mybrotheriscoolerthanyours, no mystery there. #mysisinlawiscooler will rock your world. #restlessviking shows you places you didn’t know you need to see, and makes learning an adventure for the restless soul.
Thanks!
Thank you Jill!!
I canoed from Sunken Lake (shown in the video) to Alpena in 1960 with a group from Camp Chickagami in Presque Isle. Wouldn’t recommend it today. We got as far as Maple Ridge township park that night and on to Alpena the next day…tired, wet from dragging the canoes over, under, around, and through trees and deadfalls. Seventeen miles as the crow flies…2-3 times that far following the course of the Thunder Bay River’s North Branch and then the Main Branch.
We’ve explored some sink holes nearby between Onaway, and Atlanta. We even found the site where the Ocqueoc River springs out of the ground east of Onaway in one giant artesian spring. There is a lot of geology to see in that area. I even found a couple sites we like to explore for Petoskey stones.
I am using this video on how to connect Michigan to the Ocean
Nice. Are you writing something?
I’m encouraging….. get going! 🤣
😂😂
holy smokes
should go to the grand maria sand dune on lake superior
Is that what causes whirlpools in the middle of a lake?
A dryer summer??
This is NOT part of the Niagara escarpment, right?
Good question. It is not, but it is a related to the seabeds that created the escarpment, I think. The escarpment itself is along the north channel, Drummond Island and the southern part of the UP. So, quite a ways north and east.
Biblical flood .. it’s all biblical
Nobody know what was where years ago
I enjoy your posts..!!! This one in my opinion is B. S..
They've Only been keeping weather records for around 125 years.. & you're talking hundreds of Million years ago......yea right.
& You base All this information on what....really......on what..?
Scientists, hahaha .....
Have a good day folks..
Your feeble mind's inability to understand a scientific theory or concept does not negate the validity of them. Have and adult take you to a library and read some books to you about the subjects you childishly mock.
Sinkholes are numerous in the area the people that own the mystery spot are distant relatives
I used to hunt coon by miles from posen
Thanks!
Thanks!
