Tettegouche State Park

DAY 3 (Part 1) – High Falls, Two Step Falls and the Baptism River

The High Falls of the Baptism River are the highest entirely contained in Minnesota. Pigeon Falls in Grand Portage are higher, but are part of the international border with Canada.  We opted for 100% Minnesota waterfalls and were not disappointed.  The falls are over 60 ft high and spectacular.

To the High Falls we go.

Enjoying the view.

After we enjoyed the High Falls, we headed back up.  Mike and Sophia went on ahead while I took a few more photos.

Far, far away are Mike and Sophia…

The Baptism River.

Next…Two Step Falls.
There were quite a few more than two steps to get there.

 

Complicated roots.

Local wildlife.

There was much more to see at Tettegouche State Park, but we needed to get on our way toward home. We made one more stop before reaching Duluth.
Next up…Split Rock Light House.
