Overall very good condition

Postally unused

Sandstone Falls & Rapids on the Black River, 11 miles North of Hwy #2 in Gogebic County.  These falls empty into Lake Superior about two miles farther down stream.

One of the most beautiful stretches of road in the entire Upper Peninsula can be found in Gogebic County, where CR-513 (Black River Rd.) parallels the Black River for 14 miles before it ends at Lake Superior. Five major waterfalls help make a brief stretch of this road especially memorable, rivaling the river scenery of any other location in the state. Sandstone Falls is the second-to-last drop before the river mouth, and at 25 feet it is also one of the tallest. At 1/4 mile, the hike to Sandstone Falls is one of the shortest on the Black River, and it is also one of the least strenuous. There’s a lot of room to move around and explore here depending on water levels, as the river cuts through sandstone rock and creates pools of foam below the falls.

Directions: From the intersection of US-2 and Moore St. in downtown Bessemer, head north on Moore and follow it as it winds and becomes Black River Rd./CR-513. This road will lead to all five of the scenic waterfalls, as well as Copper Peak ski flying hill. The road dead ends at Lake Superior. An alternative route is to take Powderhorn Rd. north from its intersection with US-2, and follow it past the ski resort as it winds its way into the woods (as CR-511) before eventually intersecting with CR-513. Take a left there and head north.
