Grand Marais Shoreline 001

This has been the third week in a row that we have had a day where huge waves have been pounding the shoreline of Lake Superior.

For about an hour during late afternoon a rainbow would briefly appear in the spray after each wave exploded on the rocks.

The herring gulls seem to gather along the shore during periods of high wind. Several of them would ride the winds flying over the waves. Some get as close as they can to the top of the spray. It seems like a game they like to play.

The Sawtooth Mountains looked awesome at sunset with crashing waves in the foreground.
