I spotted a tiny note referencing 'Hidden Waterfalls' on Google Maps someplace near our daughter's home, but unfortunately it was in the middle of undifferentiated forest cover. Never-the-less I was determined to find these, and roped in our grandson as a guide. It took two trips, but eventually we did find them.
The stream was tumbling over rocky sections, and slushing down flatter bedrock.
There was no open trail here, we were bushwacking, and in most places branches blocked my camera's view, at least partly.
In other places we were struggling down steep-sided fern-covered valley walls.
Moss on the huge old stumps looked like a miniature forest itself.
And someplace we came across this sign, in a place where cattle had absolutely no business being!
You did pretty well and had time with the grand as well.
ReplyDeleteAdventures like this with the younger ones are so special. Tripods are not easy to carry even in open ground .
ReplyDeleteWhat a special discovery! And with your grandson, too!
ReplyDeleteGreat hand held photos and that first one is striking. Looked like quite a physical adventure, clambering through the thickness of the forest with wet slippery rocks and tangled roots to trip the unwary. And, to do it all with your Grandson made it all so special.
ReplyDeleteIt must have been a treat to have such an adventure with your grandson, FG!
ReplyDeleteA grand adventure with beautiful pictures!!
