Catching that elusive big fish may not be at a lake, but at the base of a waterfall and I wonder if this boy was lucky on a summer Saturday afternoon.

Last night storms caused damage from wind and the heavy amount of rain. All the runoff has stirred up my pond to a brown color and the ditches looked more like big waterfalls as the water washed out culverts and roads. And while the storm caused the rainfall to seem to be bad, Bad River in Northern Wisconsin has a series of nice waterfalls including Copper Falls.

Yesterday the snow melting on my roof created mini waterfalls but by this evening most of that white stuff finally has melted so just a trickle was dripping off the house. And hopefully no more snow will be added back on the roof and that the ground starts appearing without its winter coat.

There was a loud noise when a chunk of ice and snow fell off the house roof today. I rather have the loud roar of a non-frozen waterfall instead, especially with more upcoming days below freezing temperatures. The High Falls of the Baptism River has a drop of 60 feet but has a bigger volume of water in the spring and summer compared to this late fall image.

It is amazing when 20 degrees feels warm, but considering that 20 above zero is 40 degrees warmer than the minus 20 yesterday morning, it is a bit of a heat wave. But still not above freezing to melt any snow so the scene at the Amnicon Lower Falls would have white from snow on the rocks instead of just the white from the water foam.

The wind and the clouds made the day feel colder for outdoor activities, but at least no snow yet so still time to explore some of the waterfalls around the state.

Although the day was cooler than it has been, the closer to normal temperatures still allowed some great hiking weather to explore the parks including this waterfall on the Amnicon River with the covered bridge.

Some of the “leaf peepers” might see the colorful leaves while they are enjoying a waterfall or cascades like at Siskiwit Falls at Cornucopia, Wisconsin. The Siskiwit Falls are a series of slides and drops totaling about twenty feet.

The leaves that have fallen on my lawn are damp from the late evening rain showers, but some of these leaves are wet from the mist of the river cascades.

I always enjoy visiting a waterfall and once in a while I am lucky to be present when the sun angle and wind speed are just right to create a rainbow in the mist from the falling water.
