Silver Bell Falls is a 30-foot waterfall in Alger County, Michigan, in the Northern Lakes and Forests region. It lies about 15.5 miles west of Munising and roughly 142.8 miles north of Green Bay as the crow flies.
At 30 feet it is taller than the typical Michigan waterfall of about 20 feet, ranking 37th of 116 with a recorded height. By form it is a horsetail, where the water keeps some contact with the bedrock as it falls.
The Northern Lakes and Forests are a glaciated landscape of pine, spruce, aspen and northern hardwoods dotted with thousands of lakes and wetlands. Rivers step down over ancient bedrock ledges, with dark, tannin-stained water pouring over rock.
