Gooseberry Falls is a must see.

A trip to the North Shores of Minnesota meant that Gooseberry Falls was on my list, and it did not disappoint.  In fact, I visited it three separate times because I'd always find myself getting stuck in a captivating scene that prevented me from further exploring.  

After various trips, I made almost every step of the winding trail along these beautiful cascading falls situation along the North Shore.
