Memorial Weekend Flyovers
Stuff We Love
By Lynda Wheatley | May 21, 2022
Heading to the U.P. for Memorial Day weekend? Thanks to our long-delayed spring, you might beat the Yoop’s notorious biting black flies there, but why risk it? Pop into Petoskey’s Bearcub Outfitters on your way and pick up one of Outdoor Reasearch’s Deluxe Spring Ring Headnets. Crushable, packable, breathable, and easily-fit-in-your-pocketable, this fine mesh headnet has a collapsible metal hoop that keeps the mesh away from your face. A drawcord neck closure seals the deal at the bottom, keeping northern Michigan pests as small as No-See-Ums and as big as those infamous black flies from getting up in your grill. Of course, it’s no help against bears, but hey, you can’t have it all. $25.99 and worth every extra minute you get to spend outside this summer. Find it at 321 E Lake St. or buy directly from Bearcub Outfitters’ Facebook page.
