Yondota Falls
Yondota Falls, located just 3 1/2 miles north of Marenisco Mi., on the Bessemer Ranger District, is a series of falls, so be sure you walk far enough to see them all. The trail is not long, but does drop in elevation along the river, so the uphill return hike may make this a moderately difficult trail.
