Trip Report/Photos
I've wanted to visit Rickett's Glen park for several years but it always seemed to be so far away. Saturday, seven members decided to make that long drive and spend a beautiful day hiking the falls trail. The trail is carved out of rocks that get slppery from the spray and the trail is littered with all sized exposed tree roots. Sometimes the climb is steep and arduous, but everyday hundreds of people make the climb to experience twenty-two waterfalls all on one unforgettable journey. This a a truly marvelous park. Beyond the trails, are well maintained camp sites, clean bathroom facilities and a beautiful lake and swimming area. I hope you enjoy the pictures I've included. I believe they will motivate you to join our trip to the park next year when we camp over. We'd love to have you along.
