Pictured Rocks


The Pictured Rocks boat tour is 2+ hours long.
Munising, MI is the launching point.


The colors are leached minerals.  Red is iron; blue/green is copper; black is manganese.







Several boats offer kayak tours, the kayaks loaded on a rack on top of the boat.



There is no soil under this tree, just solid rock.  Notice the rope-like thing between the large rock on top and the 'mainland' to the left.  That's a bundle of roots through which the tree gets its nutrition.  Mother Nature is indeed a determined mother.  There used to be rock between the tree island and the mainland, long gone.
