Description
Ontonagon River Bathed In Autumn Sunshine by Dale Kauzlaric -- I went to Bond Falls last fall hoping to catch the peak of color. I got here early in the morning and the sun was low in the sky. Here is the main flow of the Ontonagon River bathed in the golden early morning autumn sunshine, highlighting the water.
Bond Falls is a 50 foot waterfall from the outflow of Bond Falls Flowage located a few miles east of Paulding in Ontonagon County, Michigan. The falls is part of the middle branch of the Ontonagon River in this western portion of the Upper Peninsula or UP of Michigan. The river above the falls is beautiful with its many cascades and rapids. Bond Falls is named for Oliver S. Bond, who once owned the property. Bond Falls Flowage was created in 1940, when a dam was built on the river. A small sawmill town named Calderwood was flooded in the formation of the flowage. Bond Falls Park is a very popular tourist landmark. Bond Falls Park is a Michigan State Scenic Site. This is the best single waterfall in the western UP and the second best waterfall in Michigan. The park has a boardwalk surrounding the lower falls making this area very accessible. The river above the lower falls is accessible on both sides for those who like to climb the trails. -- dalekphotography.com

Beautiful! Was the water really that colour, Dale?

Bette, that was the color, I do not add color to my photos, what you see is what you get.
