Copper Falls State Park, Wisconsin Nov. 17, 2023

The Bad River is a scenic river in Wisconsin that flows through Copper Falls State Park. From a 27-kilometre trail along the Bad River to ancient lava flows, this park has a lot to offer. The park has two waterfalls, Copper Falls and Brownstone Falls, the larger one located on the Tyler Forks River. Copper Falls is a 9-metre waterfall that cascades over a series of rocks. Whereas Brownstone Falls is a 15-metre waterfall that plunges into a deep gorge. If you are a hiker looking for a challenging hike, then your search ends here because this place is for you. But remember to respect nature, follow "leave no trace" principles, and take nothing but photographs.
