Marinette County calls itself the waterfall capital of Wisconsin, and Amberg lives in the middle of the claim. Daves Falls is right in town, half a mile of walking, dogs fine. The Pike River supplies Twelvefoot Falls, which measures exactly what its name says, with Eightfoot and Eighteenfoot on short walks nearby. Long Slide Falls needs two tenths of a mile, Smalley half a mile. Twenty-eight falls land inside the radius, and almost every one is an easy walk that welcomes dogs.
