Split Rock Lighthouse, Two Harbors, MN. August 2012. This lighthouse has been made into a fabulous museum where you can tour the lighthouse and other buildings. There are tour guides all over the places that are full of really interesting information about the history of this place, which is super remarkable, and also about lighthouses and Lake Superior in general. It was a fabulous stop!
Because of its remote location, supplies for the Split Rock Lighthouse used to have to come in by boat, and water had to be brought up to the top of the cliff from the lake below. There is still a staircase leading down to the water where the dock used to be, and it leads down to this rocky shore. The kids had fun playing on the rocks, and the view from here was just spectacular.
