Where the Waterfalls Are
Gladstone sits in or near the Marquette and Baraga Highlands area of Michigan. The rugged hills between L'Anse and Marquette, including the Huron Mountains, hold dozens of falls on rivers such as the Sturgeon, Dead and Yellow Dog. Canyon Falls in Baraga County sits at the head of a narrow rock gorge on the Sturgeon River south of L'Anse, and Dead River Falls in Marquette County is a sequence of drops through a rocky, wooded gorge. Many falls in these counties lie at the end of rough two-track roads. Southward, Dickinson, Delta and Menominee counties have gentler terrain, with falls on rivers draining toward Lake Michigan and Green Bay. Read the Michigan waterfall guide.
