I love photographing on rainy days. The clouds provide even lighting on subjects, and can create a surreal experience.

Some helpful tips:
• Good rain coat (arm pit zips are great) & pants, along with waterproof/resistant hiking boots (I love my Oboz Bridgers). If hiking to a waterfall or crossing streams, take an extra pair of wool socks...you never know if you'll need them.
• A backpack with an integrated rainfly. If yours doesn't have one, you can purchase these separately (note: make sure to get one large enough to cover your pack when your tripod is strapped to it).
• I swear by trekking poles and don't leave without them. In wet conditions they can really save you from a serious fall. I recommend aluminum over carbon fiber since aluminum can be bent back if damaged during a fall, where as carbon fiber will break/snap.
• If hiking after the leaves have fallen, it can be as slick as ice. In some cases when hiking steep terrain, I've used my Kahtoola Micro-Spikes and they've worked amazingly well.

Lastly, research the location. Have a good GPS app/device that works without cell coverage... I use Avenza and it works great. If you're going somewhere remote, let someone know where you'll be and what time you'll return. If you'll be descending steep terrain, take a rope and don't trust those you may find.

Good luck and stay safe!

Big Sable Point Lighthouse (112ft tall) was constructed in 1867 off the coast of Lake Michigan (called Grande Point au Sable by French explorers). The lighthouse is a 4 mile (round trip) hike that starts in Ludington State Park, and is an easy, level walk. On certain days, buses are available and you can tour the lighthouse for a fee.
