Slate River Falls is an idyllic tumble into a deep pool surrounded by steep banks and towering trees. The waterfall itself is a bit odd, two angled streams of waters plunging down a layered tilt of rock, but the view is quite striking.

Canyon Falls is an impressive and easy to visit falls, and the gorge is quite impressive by Michigan standards. A scenic trail along the Sturgeon River to a series of rapids and small waterfalls before you reach Canyon Falls. "Grand Canyon of the UP". The river slides nearly 30' over a large chute of smooth black rock into a box canyon.

For the small size of Big Erick's Falls there is an awful lot to see here. Once the site of a bustling logging camp, this waterfall now has a state campsite, parking area, and one of the few bridges over the Huron River. The drops are small but uniquely structured, water pouring from one large pool to the next in short chutes over tough, layered rock

Powerhouse Falls is a large, direct cascade over layered slate nestled close to an abandoned cement building (a hydraulic powerhouse). A large parking lot, clearing, and pavilion offers a place to have events and rest near the falls, turning the spot into a pleasant town park. The drops itself is one of the most dramatic on Falls River, the sharp cascade being around six feet tall, taller than many of the lower rolling and sliding drops. Upstream from these falls lie some old remains from the removed dam and some more small drops, including Power Dam Falls.

The Silver River of Baraga County has plenty of impressive waterfalls along its length but the Upper Silver Falls easily reigns above the lower drops. Far up in the highlands of Curwood and Herman the main branch drops three hundred feet within a deep gorge over five separate waterfalls. The lower drop is the main attraction, a two-tiered set of plunges and cascades over bedrock and around huge boulders that alone is well worth the tough drive.

A small set of drops right off of US-41 within a roadside park. The first drop is within distance of the parking lot, a set of rocky rapids flowing under a footbridge. An upper waterfall, a lazy slide over rounded bedrock, is a short walk along a footpath from the park and through the woods.

The historic Calumet Theatre opened on March 20, 1900 in what was then a booming mining area. The copper mining in the Keweenaw Peninsula was reaching its peak and the village of Calumet had a population of 4,000 residents with 30,000 within walking distance of the theatre. For decades the Calumet Theatre was one of the premier locations for stage performers and touring Broadway shows.
