Picture of the Day for September 24, 2013

A babbling stream can make a very soothing sound for one to enjoy and relax. And while this seems like a nice river with water creating gurgles and ripples around and over rocks, the sound was a bit noisier with the upper falls of the Siskiwit River upstream and the middle falls directly behind me.

The sound is not roaring as larger falls would generate as the Siskiwit Falls only drops twenty feet in a series of drops and slides, with the largest cascading slide having a drop of ten feet and the other three drops and slides averaging two to five feet as it empties into the Lake Superior less than a mile away. But little falls were still impressive as you could get right up to the falls and let the water spill over your hands as it dropped over the falls but one problem of getting so close, I kept getting drops of water on the camera lens.
