Start in Point Huron, and look for Pine Grove Ave heading north, which will then veer right, onto 24th Ave. These roads get you through town, and onto M-25, or Lakeshore Road Head north out of town on MI-25. MI-25 will follow the thumb shaped coastline all the way up to Harbor Beach, Port Hope, and Port Austin (you'll see that Lakeshore Road turns into Grindstone Road and heads west into Port Austin). Continue on to the town of Sebewaing and to the end point of Bay City, Michigan.
