Whitefish Point Light House and Shipwreck Museum. Whitefish Point is one of the most dangerous areas on Lake Superior and many wrecks including the freighter EDMUND FITZGERALD. The light house and out buildings have been fully restored. The interior is as it was in the 1930's. There is also a lifesaving station depicting the efforts made to save those from the sinking ships and to recover those who perished. It was an exceptional museum giving a slice of marine history.
Upper Taquamenon Falls one of Bonnie's favorite spots as a child as are all the falls of the UP
Wagner Falls
The floor of the forest walking into Munising Falls
Miner's Falls. When Bonnie was a little girl you had to hold on to a rope on the trail to get to see these falls. Now there are easy trails and board viewing areas. They are very nice because now people with disabilities can see these beautiful natural sites.
Castle Rock at Picture Rocks National Lakeshore, high above the shores of Lake Superior. When Bonnie was a little girl Castle Rock had two spires. One recently collapsed into the Lake. You can no longer climb out onto the edifice as Bonnie could as a child-dangerous even then!
The view down into the Lake from the top of the cliff. The water is so clear you can see the rock formation and changes in color of the water due to the change in depth
The beach at the mouth of the Miner's River between the cliffs of Picture Rocks. The river carried wonderful stones to it's mouth onto the beach. Bonnie Hiked from the top of the cliffs down to the beach where she spent an hour joufully collecting stone filling herpockets. The water as it enters the lake is deep, swift and cold but the lake is colder.
The trail to a very small but delightful Memorial Falls. The trail folled the rock wall down to the foot of the falls and was riddled with little cavern like spaces where the falls over time eroded the face. A dlightful place to play hide and seek.
