Fig. 1Mineral streaks on the sandstone wall
Cambrian sandstone cliffs stained by mineral seeps — iron, copper, manganese — above the clearest of the Great Lakes.
Minerals bleed down the Munising Formation and color the cliffs like a fresco. The water is Superior: cold, green, and clear enough to show the lakebed from the rim.
