The Story UPNorth
"The sky was never the limit, but an obstacle that we will overcome"
Headquartered in the scenic Upper Peninsula of Michigan, UPNorth Recon is a dream of Andy Davis, a spirited individual with deep roots in this beautiful region. UPNorth Recon's story is more than a business; it's about a middle-class working guy from the U.P. (or Yoopers, as we proudly call ourselves) who dared to chase a dream—a dream of helping others do what they love, while doing what he loves.
