Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Munising, MI


Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore in Michigan's Upper Peninsula is named that because the rocks along the water are multi-colored due to mineral content.  There are many things to see and do at Pictured Rocks.  You can take a boat tour or take your own water tour by kayak or canoe.  There a dozens of hiking trails and many waterfalls to view.  We hiked to four waterfalls and saw the log slide.  It is a steep, sandy incline where loggers would slide the logs down to Lake Superior.  You are allowed to slide down and climb back up but there are warnings that if you need emergency services to rescue you, it will cost you $500. We did not slide down it.  We liked Sable Falls the best, we had to climb down and back up 168 steps, but it was worth it. Picture Rocks is a very beautiful and diverse park, something for everyone to see and enjoy.
