In Ohio you can find gems in plain sight. I have been close to this park in my travels through Ohio. I have never stopped until today. Herre is the State of Ohio Park link
With all the rain I knew the waterfalls would be running
hard. I had full access to Cascade Falls and they are getting close to wrapping
up the construction project on Minnehaha Falls.
This place has a lot of mud after it rains so be very
prepared. I wore my waders, and a wading jacket and I was dry as it continued
to rain all day.
This place is close to the road, it’s in the country but I
am sure as the water is wet it teams with people in the warmer months.
The rock formations are incredible. I want to believe with
my limited knowledge of geology and erosion patterns these have eroded by an ancient
river. This is not sitting go no plateau
or atop a mountain and constantly being bombarded by winds. The other point to make the erosion patterns
appear to be from the bottom up. Water
still runs at the bases of a lot of these huge pieces or rocks.
Here are some better sources that explain the geology of

There are loops you can hike. I only did 1.8 miles but there
is more to hike by using other loops. I
hope you enjoy the videos!
