Just got back from Munising last night and was looking through the 1000+ captures I made. This was my last stop before leaving Munising Monday morning.

Great shot, that is a very photogenic waterfall but due to all the other free waterfalls in the area I have never checked it out.

Cool waterfall, the leaves are a nice contrasting touch. What does Lars mean by other "free" waterfalls? Is this in a park that requires a day pass or something?

Joel, Horseshoe Falls is on 10 acres of private property. There is a gift shop there that you must go through to get to the falls. The owner charges a fee of $5.00 to get back to see the falls and other goodies they have there. In my opinion it is the nicest and most photogenic falls in the whole area. Well worth the admission cost.

Anexcellent photo of a beautiful waterfall! The first time I went to Munising I walked out of the gift shop w/o seeing the falls. I will not pay to see it! There are other waterfalls and several stunning views in the area that are free.
