The ladder itself was quite unique.īelos is an article I wrote years ago for the newspaper involving a deer camp escapade involving my husband even though he wasn’t a hunter himself. For some reason the falls are no longer accessible and it’s not uncommon see frustrated tourists trying to locate the area since it may still be on some tourist guides. This used to be a beautiful falls to hike into from two locations. Looks like a great picnic day and fun had by all.The photo at right shows a retired ladder off M-58 in Munising leading to Tannery Falls. Noting that my mother is in the picture it had to have been taken in the 1930’s and some in the photo who’s last names I remember are: Korriveau, Corey, Shampine and Leach. The photo above shows a group of ladies at leisure from Munising (some dressed in swimwear somewhat similar to the tank suits we had to wear at the Mather swimming pool).
This weeks column features a collection of pictures I have scanned over the years.
