7.75 ------ 422 ------ Midwest Regional
I am a Michigan Tech Student (that means I live in Houghton), and the trip from Houghton to Grand Rapids has taken at the shortest 8 hours (speed limit of 70 in the LP), and at the longest 13.5 Hours. Its not all that inconceivable to be driving 20 or 30 miles per hour on some stretches of the UP when it is snowing.
