Power Dam Falls

One of my favorite things to do on vacation is visit waterfalls. Whenever we choose a destination, one of the first things I do is check to see if there are any waterfalls nearby. Luckily, a lot of the places we've traveled to do have some. They are usually at the end of a nice hike, but can sometimes be found just off the side of a road.

These falls are located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, which has quite a few really nice waterfalls. We found it on a county map, barely labeled. They didn't even have a name listed there, I just call them Power Dam Falls because there is a building off the left of the falls that looks like it might have been a powerhouse using the falls to generate electricity. This is one that you can drive right up to and see without even getting out of your car.
