We are going on a 4-day adventure from Newberry to Big Bay (by way of Seney) - Big Bay to Lake Gogebic - LG to Iron River - IR to Christmas - Christmas back to Newberry. I want to be sure the hike to Big Bay isn't too much the first day.

If you only know the mileage to Marquette that would be very helpful.
 
About 220 - 250 depending on how you go. Doable, but a long day if conditions aren't very good. On the other hand if conditions are good it is an easy day. I would skip Seney and Munising, unless you have reason to go there or poor gas mileage sleds. You can fuel in or near Newberry and again at Wetmore. The trail to Ishpeming can be rough, but I would still go up 5 which is a great trail. If you don't have to start right in Newberry I wouldn't. Depends on where you are staying.
