Upper Dead River Falls — Attraction in Marquette Township

Beautiful falls with Hope's Falls further up river if you make the hike. The initial hill up can be very steep for people with mobility issues, so be prepared if you are looking for an easier hike.

The terrain around the river is run to traverse with a little bit of climbing but nothing too difficult. Give yourself time to explore the area, this isn't an experience you want to rush.

Google maps takes you right to the parking lot. Make sure to check out Reany Falls on...

Was entertained by teenagers who had swam across climbed up rock and were jumping off into swift water. Scary to me, but they said they had done it many times before. It had rained the day...
