Morgan Falls, Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, WI

Morgan Falls is another favorite place of mine where magic lives, hidden away in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, near Mellen, WI. It is the state's second highest falls (70 ft) and tumbles down a rock face in steps. It is an intimate place and if you believe in trolls, fairies or 'little people' you surely find them there. It is an easy, short walk from the parking lot along Morgan Creek. You used to cross the creek over some rocks, now there is a bridge. Also there is a daily fee at the parking lot now (sigh....  civilization doesn't halt....)
The best time to take pictures of the waterfalls is in late afternoon as it will be in shade which makes it easier to get those long exposure shots. I used a neutral density filter on all the images except the last one. It was taken in the fall and is a 8 second exposure. It was almost dark. 
I'll talk about St. Peter's Dome in the next blog post.
