The Tahquamenon River is located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, flowing through the scenic Tahquamenon Falls State Park. It stretches approximately 40 miles and is known for its distinctive brown color, which comes from tannins leached from the surrounding wetlands. The river is a popular destination for canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. One of the river's most famous features is the Tahquamenon Falls, which consists of two main waterfalls: the Upper Falls and the Lower Falls. The Upper Falls is one of the largest waterfalls east of the Mississippi River, with a drop of about 50 feet. The area attracts many visitors each year, offering beautiful views and recreational opportunities.
