When you first hear about Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore you are most likely told about large rock cliffs and cool rock formations located on the shore of Lake Superior; the great lakes largest and deepest lake. The 1st rock formation that you will most likely see is Miners Castle. Miners Castle is the closest rock formation to the closest town; Munising, Michigan. The Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore is one of those places that is ever changing and Miners Castle is no exception to that. Miners Castle used to have two turrets but as you can see there is only one now. In 2006 the 2nd turret collapsed into Lake Superior.
It is hard to believe these trees once towered over this area. I loved the character in each one of them. Silver Lake Sand Dunes is a unique place in Michigan that is well worth the visit.
