We took advantage of my and Elisha's fall break from the university and the fact that there was a promising weather forecast for upper Michigan (usually dicey at best this time of year) and left Saturday for a camping trip to Tahquamenon Falls. What a perfect trip! We spent most of our time rock picking on the beach, hiking in the park and we also did a short 2 hour paddle on the Two Hearted River. The highlight of our trip was a close encounter with a barred owl on a remote road heading to the coast of Lake Superior. Needless to say no one wanted leave! The photos just don't do the beauty of Upper Michigan in the fall justice.
