Rusted 19th‑century iron‑furnace ruins set on a wild Lake Superior shoreline — dramatic contrasts of iron, sandstone beach, woods and cold water. Best at sunrise or golden hour for warm light on rust and textured stone; stormy weather and winter ice create moody scenes. Small signed pullout and short (~5–10 min) trail from Bay Furnace Rd; informal parking, no fee. Expect bugs in summer and slippery rocks; bring layers. Noncommercial archaeology—tread respectfully.
