  • Upper Tahquamenon Falls, framed by winter ice, drops 48 feet (14 meters) in Tahquamenon Falls State Park in the upper peninsula of Michigan. The upper falls are more than 200 feet (60 meters) across and portions of the waterfall freeze in winter. The water of the Tahquamenon River appears brown or red because of tannic acid that results from the organic material generated by the cedar, hemlock and spruce forests along the river.
