Minnesota Lake Superior Drive

8/20/2007
We left Grand Portage heading for Duluth, MI. Route 61 is a beautiful drive along the west side of Lake Superior. It was an over cast cool day with a strong cool breeze and a slow drizzling rain.
There are many stops along the way with scenic views and walk ways to other views such as the one above of the hidden falls.

This is the hidden falls and you can see why they are called the hidden falls. You have to go up on the overlook and peek around the corner to see the falls.

This was another stop along the road to see this scenic view where this river emptied into Lake Superior. There were fishermen here trying their luck. There was also a rapids on the other side of the road which I have pictures of in my picture album. We stopped at a bakery in a small town to get some fresh baked goods. We spent the night in the Wal-mart parking lot in Hermantown which is a suburb of Duluth. The next day was another drizzly day so we left for the Keweenaw Peninsula in Michigan.
