      Hot Topics

      The Cataract Rafting Leaders have set up a Pictured Rocks trip with camping at the Tahquamenon state park for July 17-20. We will be camping at the lower falls campground and space is limited. If you are interested,  please contact Dan Flynn at (810) 588-8765 or email.

      Basic Itinerary:

      • Hike pictured rocks (10+miles)
      • Kayak Lake Superior to see Pictured Rocks (3-4 Hours)
      • Hike Tahquamenon falls. 
      Due to the distance to Pictured Rocks (1.7 hrs. drive) those days will be fully remote from the campsite.
