Day 2

On Saturday I took a trip to the Upper Peninsula to get some pictures of the fall colors and the waterfalls at Tahquamenon Falls State Park. The upper falls is one of the largest waterfalls east of the Mississippi at 50ft high and 200ft across and flows at 50,000 gal of water per second. The amber color is from tannins leached from the cedar, spruce, and hemlock in the swamps drained by the river. On the way back to the hotel I got some pictures of Lake Superior with Canada in the distance. Then I stopped to get some pictures of the Mackinaw Bridge and finished the night with another visit to Headlands Dark Sky Park.
