| At
Cedar Falls, huge hemlocks, a waterfall
that is picture-perfect and craggy, beautiful cliffs bring folks back from year to year.
Interesting things to look for:
One of the more popular trails is Cedar
Falls. Visitors to the trail have said it is like stepping into an enchanted
forest. Huge hemlocks, well-worn paths and rugged cliffs line much of the
trail.
At one time, a grist mill was located at the
top of the falls where a newly constructed bridge now stands. If you look
closely at the stream from the bridge, you can see the remnants of the old
mill.
Huge snapping turtles live deep in the pool
beneath the waterfall. Watch just below the cliff edge, you may see them
basking in the early morning sun. |
