This is one of the falls on the Olympic Waterfall Trail. It is a very short 1/4 mile fairly even walk to the viewpoint. I just LOVED this wild curved log that apparently has been at the bottom for almost a year now.
Madison Falls
Marymere Falls
This is only the very bottom of the falls going into the stream. I forgot how little of the falls you can see from the bottom. Since I tore my knee out, just the walk to the falls was all she wrote. So I took a picture of the trailing end. You’ll just have to go see it for yourself! It’s very impressive-especially during the spring run off.
Storm King Tunnel
This is the tunnel that leads you from the storm king parking lot to the trails for both storm king and Marymere Falls. Storm king is a 4+ rated trail to the top of the mountain -but with FANTASTIC views on a clear day. The 1.5 mile trail to the falls is easy and flat. ALTHOUGH to see the whole falls you must climb up a steep 1/4 mile with switchbacks and big steps.
Faraway Friday-Sydney AU
This fortress in the Rocks District of Sydney was used to help protect the bay as far back as the 19th century.
Spring is full of colors and textures
Wildlife Wednesday-Burrowing Owl
Cape Coral has the largest population of burrowing owls in Florida. They are tiny reaching only 9 inches in height and weighing only 4-7 ounces.
Rise up…
When I hike people often stop and look where I’m looking/photographing and say “What are you looking at?” I’ll say the dirt, or the trees etc… and I often get a “huh…” response. I find beauty EVERYWHERE.
