Maple Hill Church, Grand Marais, Cook County, Minnesota.

In the Swedish Lutheran style!

This church is available for weddings, baptisms, funerals, and other rites!

It is a starkly beautiful spot!

I went to Grand Marais in My Eddie Bauer expedition parka, insulated ski pants, Mad Bomber hat, and sneakers (to be sure-footed), and took these photos this afternoon.

It was +20F, but the wind off Lake Superior was wicked!

Looking Down

 


I love the broad scenic vistas, but I also like to look down and about, searching for unique shots.

Ice patterns fascinate me.

This is the a close-up of the tiniest puddle at the base of the Grand Marais breakwall.
