6/10/10 - Tahquamenon Falls - Paradise, MI
This is the land of Longfellow's Hiawatha -- "by the rushing Tahquamenaw". Tahquamenon Falls State Park is home to the 2nd largest waterfalls east of the Mississippi River. Two distinctly unique waterfalls create the centerpiece for this park.
"Upper Falls" is the more dramatic - it has a drop of 50 feet and width of over 200 feet.
"Lower Falls" is 4 miles down stream the Tahquamenon River, and rushes it's 50,000 gallons of water per second around an island where it is then broken into two distinct waterfalls ccascading around opposite banks of the island.
