MN Sea Stack At Tettegouche State Park Completely Collapses During Storm

SILVER BAY, MN. (THECOUNT) — A popular photo spot, Sea Stack at Tettegouche State Park, has completely collapsed after the arrival of a recent storm.

Strong waves and wind toppled the stack right into the lake leaving nothing but a stump of its former self.

The Duluth News Tribune reports that the sea stack was what remained of a naturally-forming stone arch that was formed from thousands of years of erosion from Lake Superior’s waves. The stack that remained after the arch collapsed in 2010 was estimated to be about 15 to 20 feet high, reports CBSMN.

Blizzard conditions made getting around Duluth extremely dangerous, as more than 19 inches of snow fell from Saturday into Sunday. That snow, plus fierce winds, also caused flooding along Lake Superior.

Geo quick facts: Silver Bay is a city in Lake County, Minnesota, United States. The population was 1,887 at the 2010 census. Outer Drive, Penn Boulevard, and Minnesota Highway 61 are three of the main routes in Silver Bay – Wikipedia.
