Pictured Rocks pictures taken while on boat tour from Munising, MI

The Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore is an amazing place.  It is best viewed from the water.  We took a tour boat, but saw many kayaks and small pleasure craft.  We didn't attempt to take Hallelujah close to shore as the shoreline changes annually.  Rocks continue to fall into Lake Superior.  The captain told us that each spring the tour company goes out to determine the changes so they don't damage their boats.  Also the tour boats only draw 3.5 feet, while we draw 5 feet.  There are many different mineral deposits in the limestone and when wet, create a variety of colors.  We hope that you enjoy these pictures.  Each name is one given because of the shape of the rock formation.
