Trip to Tahquamenon Falls and Pictured Rocks

The UP is beautiful, if you haven't spent time there, you are really missing out. We spent a few days there after our anniversary, camping and enjoying the Tahquamenon falls and Pictured Rocks.

The beautiful falls. The brown color of the water is from the tannins of the surrounding forests.
Upper Falls

Lower Falls- We took a row boat out to an island for close up views :)



Our campsite-- Rivermouth (just south of Paradise, Mi--> yes this is a real city name)

We made the most of a rainy night with a campfire in the rain!

Wednesday started off a bit cool with a little rain, but it warmed up later.

Munising Falls.....we also saw Chapel Falls

Miner's Rock

View of some of the Pictured Rocks-- next time we go back we will
take the boat trip. Unfortunately we couldn't go this time due to 8-10 foot waves!


The sun came out and it was a beautiful afternoon
