Mountain Man Adventure, Day 2

The next day we made our way to Rickett's Glen State Park. It has 22 named waterfalls, and a whole host of smaller, unnamed waterfalls. We took the long (scenic) route to get there, and got a later start to the hike, but ended up hiking the main circuit (down Genoga Glen and then up Glen Leigh).

The place was pretty busy, with loads of folks on the trails and clustered at the larger waterfalls. 

We didn't let that stop us, we just enjoyed the sites and moved on to the less popular falls and really enjoyed those.

The leaves were really just starting to turn at Rickett's Glen, compared to just short of full throttle at Loyalsock. 

Eventually, the two streams merge into Water's Meet (photo above) which does not count as a named waterfall. There were leaves swirling in the pool, so I thought I'd try to capture the motion with a longer exposure. I kinda like how this turned out.

We both joked with each waterfall that we'd seen them all, but the next waterfall was always just perfect, which slowed us down. Just what the doctor ordered!

Cheers,
