My tribute to the Sea Stack at Tettegouche State Park by Susanne von Schroeder.
Greetings, everyone.
The Sea Stack at Tettegouche State Park is gone, crumbling into Lake Superior during a storm over the weekend. What used to be the Sea Stack — above –is now gone.
As a tribute to this iconic rock along the North Shore, photographers have been sharing their favorite images. We thought you might like to see them. Here is what we’ve found so far.

My tribute to the iconic sea stack of Tettegouche State Park which was tumbled by yesterday’s storm. A most humbling testament to this Great Lake’s power. By Mary Amerman.

I always like to spend some time getting to know my subject before I shoot. This last year I had a magical night on the ice with the iconic Sea Stack out a Tettagouche. It has fallen victim to the last storm and will no longer be photographed. By Jeffrey Doty.
Here are a few Sea Stack photographs from other seasons:

Up until 2010, an arch connected the Sea Stack with the land. The arch fell that year. Photo by Jon Wood.
Here’s a photo of what it looked like to kayak under the arch.

“I’m pretty sure that this is a picture of the first time that I paddled under the Tettegouche sea arch, which later become the sea stack, which just collapsed.” Photograph by Bryan Hansel.

Kurt Mead, the interpretive naturalist at Tettegouche State Park, wrote this today in an email: “The same forces that created the Sea Stack brought it down. The Sea Stack is dead. Long live the Sea Stack.”
