    Munising Falls - Creek between visitors center and Munising Falls

    The Munising Falls are about 800 feet from the visitor center. The main path is paved with some…read morewooden bridge areas, but overall it's a smooth trail, definitely family friendly. It follows the stream so you can hear and admire the pretty tannin-stained water. There's a trail to the lower falls which takes you to the level of the plunge pool (and then stairs from that point to a middle vantage point), but also branches to stairs to the upper falls if you want to get another viewpoint. The upper falls trail also winds close to the sandstone cliffs, some of which have been unfortunately defaced by graffiti. Overall this can be a quick stop if you're in a hurry, or you can spend longer if you take some time to absorb your surroundings. Make sure to bring bug repellent since there's plenty of mosquitoes around!

Do not get your hopes high for this ! used to be so amazing thou...

    The Hernando DeSoto Bridge is a bridge on US 41 that goes over the Manatee River between Palmetto…read moreand Bradenton, Florida. As you go over the bridge, you get a beautiful view of the Manatee River. The Desoto Bridge is 40 feet (12 m) tall and carries four lanes. It is one of two bridges connecting Bradenton and Palmetto. The DeSoto Bridge opened in 1957It has a length of 2,334.4 ft and a width of 62 ft. with 33 spans The bridge crosses the Manatee River at a 40 mile stretch. The river is a 36-mile-long river and runs through Manatee County, Florida. There are alligators in the Manatee River (which surprised me for some reason). Wildlife in and around the river includes alligators, herons, manatees, dolphins, and fish such as bass, bluegill, catfish, and gar. Bull sharks are even found occasionally in the brackish water near its low-lying outlet! The river starts in the northeastern corner of Manatee County and flows into the Gulf of Mexico at the southern edge of Tampa Bay. The DeSoto Bridge gets highly congested at rush hour. The county has looked at a new bridge with elevated lanes but it would be 10+ years in the future and there is opposition from people nearby. They will have to fix the problem somehow. Widening the current bridge would be great but difficult because a temporary replacement would have to be readied before work on the original bridge could begin. The Hernando DeSoto Bridge is an essential river crossing from Palmetto and the north to Bradenton but also an important landmark here in Manatee County.

    Such an interesting tour! You get to put on your lighted helmet and walk into the past, deep below…read morethe surface. Hope you read the rest of my review, but first I want to share something that pisses me off! When we go out to eat at a restaurant we tip the waiter for their service... but when I've been in these types of tours I can't believe how many people don't tip! Not even a couple of bucks! The people giving these tours work harder, share more information , and in this case, do it for almost 3 hours. Much longer than the waiter who brings you a cheeseburger... so stop being so cheep... you know who you are! (End of sermon)! Our guide (Cam) was spectacular! She had so many interesting stories and knowledge of a world in a time that is long gone... (thank god!) The days of this type of deep mining by hand or handheld drill are long over with. Not just because it's not profitable, but because it was inhumane! (Well sadly more because it's not profitable ) Many people worked here until they died of lung issues or were deaf from the drills. Be prepared for at least a 2 1/2 hour tour in the depths of a tunnel in a mountain. Don't worry the paths are safe and large enough that it's shouldn't be a problem if you're worried about claustrophobic conditions. It is cold however... it stays around 40 degrees all year. And it is a little muddy so don't wear your good shoes. If you love history, or think seeing a defunct mine would be interesting, I highly recommend this tour. And give your guide a tip for gods sakes!

    Loved it! Guide was a Michigan tech student. Started with a presentation. Option to go down into…read morethe mine - 1/2 our tour chose not to. Was interesting to see a glimpse of what working in the mine was like. It's cold in the mine - 43 degrees year round. Highly recommend - worth the $
