This image is of Torch Lake — Michigan's longest inland lake — located in the northwest lower Michigan.
I launched my drone on the dock near Torch Lake Township Boat Ramp. After parking your car in the parking lot along Pub Dock Road, follow the GPS coordinates to get to the exact spot where I launched my drone.
