Marquette, MI
Trestle Falls is among Marquette County's most impressive sights and is also one of the least known waterfalls. The LS&SI railroad crosses an steep river gorge here, reaching over to a sheer rock cliff that rises up impossibly high above the water. Below the towering steel trestle the water pours over a two-tiered drop, the first a narrowing slide into a deep gouge in hard, exposed rock and the lower a tumbled slide tortured by giant blocks of rock. Below these falls the river calms down, entering a sluggish swamp for several miles
