Upper Tahquamenon Falls in Tahquamenon Falls State Park, Michigan
This blast of autumn colour comes from the uppers falls of Tahquamenon Falls in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. The cascade has the nickname ‘Root Beer Falls’ due to the reddish brown tint the water often takes. Cedar swamps upstream put a high concentration of tannins in the water, which cause the discoloration. And when fall turns the leaves on the banks orange and crimson, the falls blend in nicely with the colour scheme.
