Warner Falls. Relatively easy to find if you know where to look. If you don't you will drive right by it. It was reaching twilight as I approached these falls and the temps were in the low 30's. I was in my groove so I didn't notice the temp until I checked my phone after taking the images. It showed 32. I was only wearing a sweatshirt. In order to get a decent angle the falls you must go down a very steep hill. Remember this is the UP (Upper Michigan), so snow base was two to three feet in depth. After hiking (sliding) down the hill I was in front of the falls. It is a smaller falls in terms of relative size, but one of beauty. If you notice at the bottom of the frame it spills out into the grassland below and makes a series of small rapids in the process.
As I mentioned in Part I of this entry, The UP gets its share of snow. I was actually stranded for a day up in Marquette due to a snowstorm. No images were taken that day. The next day I headed east toward Munising to capture the waterfalls in and near the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. On my way I stopped by a falls named Scott Falls that is right across from Lake Superior. It is small falls, but has some character nonetheless.
Next up Munsing Falls, frozen in place...
