I had stopped by the waterfall in Osceola Wi and found it filled with too many people. So I decicded to swing by Fairy Falls in Stillwater and see if it was worth my time to capture it. The falls were thankfully flowing which was good because this is a wet weather waterfall. The lighting was good but there was a nasty storm headed my direction. Soon the storm arrived stopping my work immediately. I returned the following Saturday morning and the weather matched almost perfectly. After few sets on the top of the falls, I climbed down in the gorge finished up my photographs. I had visited this waterfall back in the late 80's only to find a lot of the rock wall covered in graffiti with a good deal of trash at the bottom. This time there were no markings on the surrounding walls with only a few cans stuck in the rocks. Those I cleaned out for the video. I hope you enjoy my little adventure.

Apple River waterfall
As I approached the falls a wave of memory came back to me of a canoe trip I took 40 years ago when I was 12 years old. I walked around the bend and found the place of our campsite.
I have seen images of this waterfall online and started to wonder why I had not heard much about it. It turns out it's not really accessible via "public" entrance from the road. It is however on a river access if you were canoeing and needed to portage around the falls.
The sun was slowly setting and the light was harsh but I like the glow from the highlights on the peaks of the falls.
