camping day 2 - miner's beach, miner's castle and miner's falls

After a little picnic lunch to fortify us, we set off to enjoy the beach!

Of course, the sand must be tested and tasted

We played and played

Papa did some adventuring

And then we headed off to Miner's Castle for a short hike and some photo ops

It was a photo like the one below on the Pure Michigan site (of course sunnier and professionally taken) that got me interested in taking a trip to the UP in the first place

But I think I like this view even better!

We capped off the afternoon with a hike to Miner's Falls

It was a brief hike through a hilly, forested area filled with very pretty yellow birch trees

Time for a nap!


A great first full day at Pictured Rocks!
