Gooseberry Falls Field Trip

We went on an intern field trip to visit another research facility in Cloquet, MN studying the effects of global warming on boreal and temperate forests. Afterwards we went to Gooseberry Falls State Park and hiked around for a couple hours.
For those of you who have never been to MN/WI, there aren't really "mountains" -just gently rolling "hills" so these falls are a big deal :)
This is one of the paths we hiked on to get to the falls. I just love all the neat roots that are exposed.

It was a gorgeous day. I wish I would have had more than my cell phone camera for pictures.
