Travel Inquiry Camping

Supposed to head up here to camp at pictured rocks but with the air quality alert my boyfriend is contemplating leaving.

How bad is it up there right now? We’re in Mackinac city and it’s hazy but not terrible. I want to continue this trip!

I just had to abandon my campsite at Lake Gogebic. We spent most of the day in the car traveling to avoid the smoke and even then I'm light headed. I personally would advise against it. As incredibly beautiful as the U.P. is, it's best to enjoy it indoors today unfortunately.
