Spirit of Miners Falls
Miners Falls, Michigan, is located at the end of a scenic dirt trail through very tall trees. At trail end, the National Park Service has built a steep set of stairs that ends at a viewing platform. From there you can look across to a spectacular 40 foot drop of water over the falls. At the base of the falls lives a peaceful rock guardian, protector of small water critters.
More Information
There are many small critters who live in the streams around waterfalls. This rock being protects them at Miners Falls. As a symbol of his protection, a collection of the small beings, such as frogs, are sculpted into his rock head. Miners Falls is located on the Western edge of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore in Michigan.
