Keweenaw Waterfall, photo by Paula Liimatta
When I come across a waterfall photo that I can’t place, I have three places I turn:
- GoWaterfalling.com – hands down the best resource for waterfalls of Michigan and the Great Lakes region (with a few others scattered in for good effect). The author delivers concise descriptions, photos of the falls and accurate directions with maps and tips for hundreds of waterfalls.
- Waterfalls of the Keweenaw – this site was created by Jacob Emerick and has information, directions and beautiful photos for 200 Michigan waterfalls, in the Keweenaw and beyond. Sorry for getting Jacob’s name wrong!!
- Waterfalls on Michigan in Pictures – there are over 100 Michigan waterfalls profiled on Michigan in Pictures.
I have my ideas as to which waterfall this is – any guesses? Post them in the comments!
Paula took this last April on the Keweenaw when spring snowmelt in the U.P. pumps the waterfalls up to incredible levels. View her photo background big and see more including some crazy ice-climbing shots in her slideshow.
This is in Eagle River in the Keweenaw near Eagle Harbor.

One reason this may be unrecognizable is that Eagle River Falls only has this kind of water flow during the spring melt. Most of the year, it’s a very small trickle with a lot more bedrock visible. But yes, that chuck of old wooden dam in the middle is the big giveaway.
