fall color at Bluffton Bluffs IA 653A8280

The Upper Iowa River is one of the more popular rivers to canoe or kayak here in the Midwest because of beautiful views like this along its banks. Those limestone palisades are rising 150 feet above the river and are a classic feature of the remarkable geological formations found here in the Driftless region. Drought conditions earlier this summer have left the Upper Iowa River at near-historic low flows yet today.
