Union River

 

Union Mine Trail, Porcupine Mountains

I think I could come back to this spot every day for the rest of my life and not get tired of listening to the water and gazing at the natural beauty. 

Ogemaw Falls

 

Alberta, Michigan

It took a little searching to find the trail to these falls, but it was worth it to take the short hike to this often overlooked waterfall. It's much smaller than nearby Canyon Falls, but with a personality all it's own.
