There are three waterfalls all in the same general location along the Presque Isle River a short distance before the river empties out into Lake Superior. First, there is the Nawadaha then a short distance downstream is the Manido falls then very shortly further down is the Manabezho falls. My pictures are kind of jumbled up, and I can't really identify what falls are what. But if you ever visit here, you're going see all three.
A view from the top of the Nawadaho Falls.
Most of the viewing is by a series of wooden stairs and platforms.
After you pass the Manabezho Falls, the walkway crosses the Presque Isle River. It's an expansion rope type bridge and moves and sways if you jump up and down. This is where the Lake Superior Trail begins at the other end of the park 16-miles from where we entered at the other end for our Lake Superior Trail hike.
From the center of the bridge, you got this view of the violent rapids.
Aaron probably did something he wasn't supposed to do, but he took a close up video of the falls. He wasn't in any danger unless he stepped into the stream. He took this picture of Gypsy and I waiting for his return.
To view all three waterfall, it's quite a little walk but is something you can do in just a few hours time. I would say it is a must see if you're visiting the Porcupine Mountains.
Our campsite was at the Union River Outpost. As far as we could see, there was only three campsite, and they were huge. Our site had a driveway longer than most residential drives, and the area was almost a half lot in size. We were in black bear country so we keep the Jeep close by and had bear spray in the tent with us.
