near Silver Bay, Minnesota, 13 July'16
"High Falls" of the Baptism River, Tettegouche State Park...this is the falls that Alex Silka photographed while I "recovered" in my car, down - waaaaay down - in the trailhead parking lot (not from hiking, but from the "maple bacon bourbon burger" at the Northwoods Cafe in Silver Bay - highly recommended!) Three days ago I decided to go drive up there myself, wait in "my" meadow for some R.O.C. from NorthShore Mining, got nothing but a very pleasant wait for my time (but it was all worth it) and took the hike. Other than the muddy trails from recent rains, it was fun and - for me - exhausting. THEN I was ready for the burger!
