Marquette County

Marquette County lies in the middle of Michigan's Upper Peninsula on the shores of Lake Superior. Some of my favorite falls in Marquette County would be Black River Falls, Carp River Falls, the Upper Dead River Falls and Yellow Dog River Falls. The map below is a little obsolete so click my large map of the Marquette area waterfalls and Skanee area waterfalls.
