In the Northern Highlands of Wisconsin I have been hiking around waterfalls on Sunday and today... Amnicon Falls and Copper Falls.
Up the trail from the Bad River today, I had the immense pleasure of seeing the first (for me) wood anemones in bloom (Anemone quinquefolia). The wood anemone is so-o-o-o tiny beside a massive ancient white pine! I understand the species has some variation in color. The half-dozen specimens in the group had soft purple blossoms, like the purple-ish specimen in the linked photos.
There are still many waterfalls in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan that I have never gone looking for. They are on my list. I would not call it my "bucket" list, since we are talking about waterfalls of immense power... thunderous sound. My "Roar" List?
I suppose in a geological sense, finding waterfalls is a matter of "finding fault".
