Rivendell (with new & improved larger pic's - click & see!)

This is Watkins Glen State Park. This gorge trail was one of the most beautiful and remarkable stops on our trip. Waterfalls, stone bridges, tunnel's, cascading pools, towering canyon walls... sound like a movie set, huh?
not to worry, no giant spiders in here







Notice the staircase at stage left


Here's Dawn and Nathan about to slip behind the waterfall!




lunch on the go


Always happy to be outside






one of the more 'interactive' spots along the trail


and now for a closer look!






we circled back to to the car via the rim trail through the woods surrounding the gorge and happened upon this fellow... who was making short work of this rotten stump!


Nathan salutes his awe and reverence for the wonders of nature just seen

Simply beautiful! All the stairs and such are amazing and so very nice for the hike. Would love to see it in person....as long as I did not have to camp to see it. :)
