Falling Waters

The Ontonagon River flows toward Lake Superior on the western Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The main stem of the river is 25 mi and is formed by a confluence of several longer branches, portions of which have been collectively designated as a National Wild and Scenic River. The Ontonagon River's principal tributaries are its West, South, Middle and East branches, all of which flow in part through the Ottawa National Forest. Below the confluence of its various branches, the river flows generally north-northwestwardly through Ontonagon County to the village of Ontonagon, where it flows into Lake Superior. This shot was taken on the Middle Branch of the Ontonagon River east of the town of Paulding just below Bond Falls. Best viewed LARGE.
