The Huron River is a river〔U.S. Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. (The National Map ), accessed January 3, 2012〕 in the northern Upper Peninsula of Michigan in the United States. Locally, it is commonly called the Big Huron River to distinguish it from the nearby Little Huron River. Another much larger Huron River is in Southeast Michigan. The east and west branches of the Big Huron rise in L'Anse Township in eastern Baraga County, southeast of Mount Arvon, near the boundary with Marquette County. The East Branch runs through a corner of Marquette County before flowing back into Baraga County. The east and west branches merge in Arvon Township shortly before flowing into Lake Superior a few miles east of Huron Bay. The Huron River is known for its natural beauty and for rugged recreational uses. It is almost completely unmodified and undeveloped by humans. It flows almost entirely through woodlands and includes a large number of picturesque low waterfalls and rapids. The National Park Service ranks it highly in its Nationwide Rivers Inventory for scenery and geology.〔http://www.nps.gov/ncrc/programs/rtca/nri/states/mi.html "Nationwide Rivers Inventory, Michigan Segments" 〕 The river is highly regarded for its sport fishing, especially for steelhead trout. Camping and canoeing are also popular, though both are considered difficult due to a lack of supporting facilities. ==Scenic waterfalls== The following is a partial list of waterfalls along the Huron River and its branches, generally listed in order heading upstream. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Huron River (northern Michigan)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
