Houghton County

From M-26 in Houghton turn west onto the Houghton Canal Road and continue for approximately 5 miles to the Liminga Road. Turn left and drive west about 5.8 miles through Redridge to the dam, on the left just as the road crosses the Salmon Trout River.

Although not a true waterfall, the dam is both interesting and unusual. Contrary to materials of the time, pieces of steel, intricately pieced together were used in the construction.
