I’ve decided to wait out the worst of the rain this morning, and take a more direct route to Ludington in the afternoon. I can catch the scenic lakeshore route on the way home, or another time. This should get me to the state park late in the afternoon, which is technically past my check-in time… but I don’t think they’re going to have too many people without reservations showing up looking for a campsite today.
Too bad about the rain delay. Hopefully you will get a window of opportunity soon. What roads are included in your new route to Ludington?
Looks like the simplest route to Muskegon is just to head toward Grand Haven, but turn north on 112th Ave/Maple Island Rd then west on Apple Ave. Whitehall Dr will then take me to Whitehall of all places, then Oceana Dr/Pere Marquette Highway runs roughly parallel to US-31 (and apparently used to be US-31, because Google Maps keeps calling it that) to Ludington.
