Fiddle-Dee-Dee!

Emerging Fiddlehead(?) Fern with an attitude! I found him at Gooseberry Falls State Park along the trail that goes down to view the Middle Falls.

 

The park is located in Castle Danger, about ten miles north of Two Harbors, Minnesota on the North Shore of Lake Superior. It is one of Minnesota's most popular and treasured state parks.

 

It was constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the late 1930's/early 1940's as part of the New Deal getting men back to work during the Great Depression. There are several awesome historic buildings here along with lots of trails, many feet of rocky Lake Superior shoreline, a campground (book a year ahead of time for summer camping!), an awesome picnic area with CCC-built tables still in place and lots more.

 

It's a "must stop" place if you are going anywhere on the North Shore.
