👍👍 What they’re calling Erickson Park is just Irvine by Glen Loch?? I’ve been coming here for years and just called it Glen Loch or Glen Loch Dam?? But whatever.

Interstate Falls Park

👍👍 A fantastic quick hike! We were looking for something fun and quick to do while in Ironwood for one night and Interstate Falls did not disappoint.
