After visiting Amnicon Falls State Park we drove through Duluth on our way up to Grand Marais on the Minnesota North Shore. Our first stop was Gooseberry Falls State Park. It is the most visited park in Minnesota. There had been a lot of rain during the previous week and the water was high in the Gooseberry River. I have been dealing with an Achilles problem so we limited our hiking.
Our first stop was upper falls.
This shot of middle falls shows the amount of water flowing in the river.
This is a classic show of the trees lining the river when the water levels are high.

Normally not a shot I take at Gooseberry but I though it made a nice composition given the light and the colors on the trees.
