Victoria Dam Falls (Glenn Falls)

By far the biggest waterfall in the area!  When it's going, that is.  The spillway to Victoria Dam drops impressively into the gorge below, particularly at high water during the spring thaw.  It's thunderous!  Although you can't drive right to it, UPPCO allows visitors to hike their road down to the dam to check out the falls from across the gorge.  Getting photos is kinda difficult because there's so much spray blasting you, so get your shots quickly before your lens gets mucked up.


There are also several smaller waterfalls that only run during peak times in the surrounding area downstream of the main spillway falls.  Be sure to hunt for those in the spring, you might get lucky!


Victoria Dam was built upon Glenn Falls, the 'original' waterfall at this location on this branch of the Ontonagon River.  I haven't been able to track down any photos of it (yet) because the dam was built so long ago.  Turns out nobody had social media back then to share constant updates on about their cool adventures.  Rats.
