This path here is from Esrey Park on M-26 on the way to Copper Harbor. You walk up the steps are are welcomed by a higher-up view of Lake Superior. If you are lucky, you may even catch some freighters on the horizon.

When I think about all of our travels in the Keweenaw, even a walk down the street yields a beautiful natural or historical element. I think that is what makes this area so special. There is no lack of beauty.

• Unusual Trees at Esrey Park

They aren’t hidden. In fact, this tree is right next to the stone path that leads to the steps to go on top of the rock for the lake view.

What you see here is a tree that has a very large root growing around a rock. Amazing, isn’t it? Here’s a shot from another angle.

Not too far away from this tree is another tree that is closer to the lake. A large portion of the ground beneath it appears to have washed away.

It always amazes me how trees adapt to their surroundings. Fifty years from now I wonder how these same trees will look.
