Gathering Storm, Tettegouche State Park

Gathering Storm, Tettegouche

Tettegouche is one of my top three Minnesota State Parks. It combines spectacular views of the lake and shoreline, but also great hiking on the Superior Hiking Trail with views of the Sawtooth Mountains, a bunch of waterfalls along the Baptism River, including the 60 ft High Falls, and several lakes in the back country. It's a fantastic place for photography, sketching, or painting.

This is a sketch in oils of heavy weather heading toward Palisade Head and Shovel Point at Tettegouche State Park.

Temperance River State Park

The Temperance River, on Minnesota’s north shore of Lake Superior, has carved out a gorge providing countless mesmerizing views of the river and its cascades and falls. A number of bridges cross the river in the Park, including the one pictured here in the lower gorge area.
